- Acoustic ecology of pelagic fish communities: a study into the effects of construction and exploitation of wind farms
- Acronym
- APELAFICO
- Description @en
- This project concerns an interdisciplinary study with fundamental and applied aspects fitting the targets of the Dutch National Research Agenda (NWA). The project will collect data, using a set of echosounders, on density and diversity of pelagic fish in and around offshore windfarms in association with acoustic conditions during the construction and exploitation of windfarms.
