The improvements in marine
technological developments propagate urbanization in the ocean environment. The
construction or operational activities of marine structures such as energy
plants, oil platforms, pipe-lines, sea-tunnel passages, or cable-stayed suspension
bridges, and vessel traffic are sources of underwater noise pollution. How
underwater sounds such as piling, pole drilling, or machinery noises may affect
the marine live is mostly ignored in marine construction, and there is lack of
information regarding underwater sound effects on marine live in the oceans.
Recently, a remarkable interest is developing concerning underwater sound
effects, especially in aquaculture facilities, with experimentation of musical
stimuli or various noises caused by pumps or filter systems on behavior and
stress responses of fish in culture conditions. With the increase of
urbanization and progressive development of marine industries, more and more
pressure from human-generated (anthropogenic) underwater sound pollution may
threaten marine mammals, fish species and invertebrates from underwater noises
that in terms might be called as “Underwater Noise Pollution”. The future of
marine life and that of human being, and the dramatic increase of underwater
sound pollution is a new debate that needs to be controlled in a sustainable
way with environment-sound approaches. Therefore the potential effects of
various sound sources derived from marine industrial activities have been
reviewed in this study.
