Welcome to Dublin. Welcome to the Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life 2016.

This is the fourth conference in this successful international series, following the previous meetings held in Nyborg, Denmark (2007), Cork, Ireland (2010), and Budapest, Hungary (2013).

As in previous years, the conference consists of a broad technical program that takes us from animal sound production to reception and from sound sources through soundscapes to impacts on individuals and populations and provides links between science and policy. We will learn about a diversity of animal taxa. We will discover the latest research results from around the world.

The conference follows the format of a mixture of several keynote talks, 15-minute oral presentations, 5-minute speed talks, and posters. All speed talks are accompanied by a poster of the same title. The conference proceedings this year will be published online and open access in the Proceedings of Meetings on Acoustics (POMA), a publication of the Acoustical Society of America.

We are delighted to announce that this year’s meeting includes the first Rodney Coates award for the best student presentation. Rodney Coates was a great supporter of our field of research, and we thank his family for their generosity in awarding £1,000 to a student chosen by a technical selection panel. All applicants will present a poster and a speed talk.

On Tuesday night, we are holding a public lecture, including the presentation of a few short films on the topic of underwater noise and its effects on marine life. This evening is aimed at the residents of Dublin and surrounding communities. Conference participants are welcome to attend, but please note that the format will be nontechnical, and registration preference will be given to the public.

We have a social program that starts with a welcome reception on Sunday evening for delegates and accompanying persons and that includes traditional Irish music. The conference banquet will be held on Friday night, at Trinity College, again accompanied by live Irish music. Prior to the banquet, we have arranged for a private viewing of the Book of Kells for all people attending the banquet. The Book of Kells is one of Ireland’s greatest cultural treasures and the world’s most famous medieval manuscript. A disco night has been organized for Thursday evening at the hotel bar. Entry to this event is free of charge, but everyone pays for their own drinks. A 5 km “fun run,” together with a 1 km “fun walk,” is scheduled for early Wednesday morning. The route runs through the old centre of Dublin and along the Liffey River—a sightseeing fitness break not to be missed.

We would like to thank our sponsors for financial support of the meeting, our Advisory Committee for their guidance on the technical program, and our Media Committee for managing all conference related social media, the short-film competition and the public lecture night.

The logistics, organization and running of this meeting could not have happened without the exceptional guidance, wisdom, and help of the staff of Venues World, specifically Terri Cullinane, who’s managed the meeting and us for the third time. Terri is the most professional, diligent, careful and caring person we could ever have dreamt into this role.

We thank Helen Popper for editing and compiling the abstract book; our Advisory Committee (all of whom are listed in this programme book), Rob McCauley, Klaus Lucke and Vanesa Reyes for assisting our Advisory Committee with the review of abstracts; and Patty Doerfler of the Department of Biology at the University of Maryland for her meticulous work to ensure that our funding was managed properly and that we are in the position to reimburse delegates getting support in the most efficient manner.

We wish all attendees a productive and enjoyable week in Dublin.

GENERAL INFORMATION & CONFERENCE ACCOMMODATION

Dublin

Dublin is a unique and vibrant capital city with a rich culture and heritage where city living thrives

side by side with the natural outdoors. It offers more than just a city, nestled alongside mountains

and sea, with a multitude of tours and experiences to be enjoyed. Its music, art and literature

have travelled the world and indeed in 2010, the city was designated a UNESCO City of Literature

in recognition of its cultural profile and international standing as a city of literary excellence. So

whether one wishes to explore the many parks, museums and galleries, browse in the many shops

and street markets or enjoy delicious food, there is something for everyone.

The Conference Hotel: O’Callaghan Alexander Hotel

The venue we selected for the 4th International Conference, the O’Callaghan Alexander Hotel, is

located in the heart of Dublin, off Merrion Square, and only a few minutes’ walk from Trinity College,

many of the main galleries and museums and of course the shopping area of Grafton Street. This

4-star hotel offers excellent facilities and personalised service in these quiet surroundings in one of

the most beautiful areas of the city centre. Its sister properties, the Davenport and Mont Clare Hotels,

also offer a range of accommodation options all within walking distance of each other.

RODNEY COATES AWARD

We are very pleased to announce that through the generosity of his family, we will be presenting an award for the best student presentation in honor of the late Rodney Coates.

Rodney attended several of our meetings and he was avidly interested in the whole discipline. Those of us fortunate enough to have known Rodney miss his being at the Dublin

meeting, and we are very honored to be able to remember him in a way that reflects his love of the field and his strong and continuing interest in young scientists.

The Conference Organizers are pleased to confirm that the meeting itself will donate a 2nd and 3rd prize in honor of Rodney.

The award will be announced on Friday 15th July, the last day of the meeting.
