Abstract |
All fish sense acoustic particle motion; some species also sense pressure. Concern over the effects of anthropogenic sounds is increasing the need to monitor acoustic particle motion. Particle motion can be measured directly using vector sensors or calculated from pressure gradients. This article compares three devices that measure particle motion: a three-axis accelerometer, a three-axis velocity sensor, and two 4-element hydrophone arrays. A series of sounds (constant-wave tones, white noise, and Ricker wavelets) were played from a fixed-position projector. The particle motion of sounds from imploding light bulbs was also measured. |
