  • Descrição: Thomas Folegot, founder of Quiet-Oceans in Brest, France, has developed a computer model called Quonops that analyses maps of the sea floor and predicts how sound will behave as it propagates through water of different salinities, temperatures and depths. Folegot presented his system at the 2nd International Marine Conservation Congress in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, last month. He has used Quonops to make noise pollution maps of roughly 18 cubic km of ocean in the middle of the Strait of Gibraltar. Here, Gupta discusses the software's capabilities.
