Marine Underwater Sound Recordings

Provided by Caruso’s Lab, Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn (SZN), Italy

A selection of underwater sound recordings from our marine research which includes natural recordings of species such whales, dolphins, fish and shrimp, and recordings of anthropogenic activities such as seismic surveys, fishing trawlers and container ships. We want to raise awareness of the noise pollution from anthropogenic activities and provide an opportunity for people to experience what a selection of sounds are like underwater!
