摘要

The impulsive signals emitted by seismic airguns are one of many sources of anthropogenic noise in the oceans. Concerns about potential adverse effects of anthropogenic noise on marine life have existed since the 1970s and have since triggered regulators to impose mitigation requirements in many jurisdictions worldwide. Such mitigation measures can include the definition of exclusion zones around sensitive areas, or the deployment of marine mammal observers (MMO). Sometimes, so-called sound source verification measurements are required to monitor sound levels in specific areas. In this paper, we describe how accurate forward-modelling of farfield signatures emitted from airgun arrays can be used to estimate the sound level of a marine seismic source as a function of distance. Results obtained from this modelling can be used for a variety of mitigation measures. These can include the planning of exclusion zones around sensitive areas, safety radii around seismic source vessels for the planning of MMO deployment, as well as the planning of so-called soft-start procedures, i. e., the process of ramping up the output of an airgun array by gradually adding individual guns over a sequence of shots.
