The aim is to assess how different types of anthropogenic sound affect the physiology of aquatic animals.
Reviewed literature on five major sources of anthropogenic sound.
Analyzed effects across various taxa, focusing on fish, invertebrates, and marine mammals.
Identified gaps in knowledge regarding sound impacts on different species.
Ship sounds primarily cause stress responses in fish, with well-documented impacts.
Seismic sounds show varying effects depending on species and are less understood.
Pile driving has resulted in documented hearing impairment and injury in marine mammals and fishes.
Lethal effects from naval sonar on marine mammals have been recorded.
Other industrial sounds have insufficient data on impacts across taxa.
