Many human-induced stressors threaten marine biodiversity and compromise ecosystem health. The ability to quantify the global impact of these stressors on marine biodiversity is essential for conservation efforts. Life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) provides a standardized method used to quantify environmental impacts, enabling comparability across stressors. However, while the effects of vessel noise on marine life can be severe and have many ecological consequences, the impact quantification of underwater noise in LCIA is absent. Integrating vessel noise into LCIA enables a more holistic impact assessment and evaluation, with the aim to inform conservation and policy decisions for sustainable ocean management.

摘要

Many human-induced stressors threaten marine biodiversity and compromise ecosystem health. The ability to quantify the global impact of these stressors on marine biodiversity is essential for conservation efforts. Life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) provides a standardized method used to quantify environmental impacts, enabling comparability across stressors. However, while the effects of vessel noise on marine life can be severe and have many ecological consequences, the impact quantification of underwater noise in LCIA is absent. Integrating vessel noise into LCIA enables a more holistic impact assessment and evaluation, with the aim to inform conservation and policy decisions for sustainable ocean management.
