"Our science plan is to better understand how animals are using sound, because the more we understand all of those uses, the better we can get at what it is animals need us to mitigate or reduce that is harmful."
A conversation with Leila Hatch (Research Ecologist at NOAA) on the broader role of NOAA and the origin of the SanctSound project. Presented by Longitude fellow Jesse Annan van der Meulen.

As part of our Longitudes of Imagination theme, we are exploring the roles of individuals, technologies and research in ocean science and space technology. In this series, the fellows share highlights from their conversations with scientists and the members of NOAA’s soundscape monitoring project at the U.S. Marine Sanctuaries.
What are they hearing underwater? What are they measuring? Who are they? And What are we learning?
Tune into Longitude Sound Bytes episodes 105-110 for our conversations and explore the ocean sounds in the SanctSound Data Portal at https://sanctsound.ioos.us.
