Partners

Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, BarcelonaTech (UPC)


The Laboratory of Applied Bioacoustics (LAB) of the Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya, BarcelonaTech (UPC) is one of DIAPHONIA’s partners. They are experts in bioacoustics and the effects of noise on marine life. As part of DIAPHONIA, the LAB will look at the effects that particle motion and sound pressure of anthropogenic sound can have on invertebrates.

University of Padova (UniPd)

 


The Department of Comparative Biomedicine and Food Science of the University of Padova is one of DIAPHONIA’s partners. They are expert veterinary pathologists, anatomists, and physiologists of marine fauna including cetaceans and fish. As part of DIAPHONIA, BCA will look the effects of anthropogenic noise on behaviour, physiology, and pathology of fish and cetaceans. Our partners at the Department of Geosciences, are experts in the physics of mechanical waves; in the framework of DIAPHONIA, they are looking at how compressional and shear waves propagate around and through the dolphin’s anatomy.

Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)


The Marine Bioacoustics and Ecology Lab of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology has expertise in bioacoustics, aquaculture biology and ecophysiology, stress, pollution and other human impacts on cetaceans and fish. Experiments on the impact of noise on salmon will be conducted in Sandnes, in collaboration with the NINA aquaculture research station.

University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover (TiHo)


The team at Institute for Terrestrial and Aquatic Wildlife Research (ITAW) of the University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover (TiHo), are veterinarians, biologists and physicists, experts on marine mammal hearing, bioacoustics, effects of noise on marine organisms, genetics and health assessment.
