Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM)

• Radio Linked back to vessel or base (1km)

• Can be attached to sea anchor or floated out from vessel or harbour

• Radio link shows ‘real time’ listening and recording of marine mammals, noise etc.

• Used in Subsea explosives operations, pile driving, cable laying, pipe laying, ordnance disposal etc.

 

Seal and Marine Mammal Scrammer

• Can be radio linked for specific on/off use 1km range

• Can be set up to operate on marine mammal sensor or manual activation

• Deters seals from 300m, porpoises & dolphins from 800m, whales from 1000m +

• Can be attached to sea anchor and left for 7 days at a time or deployed from harbour or vessel

• Acoustic & pressure pulse systems available (for fish & marine mammals etc.).
