The Hydrophone Project

The Hydrophone Project involves using specialized underwater microphones, called hydrophones, to listen to sounds beneath the water's surface. These devices detect noises from marine life, ships, and natural phenomena like earthquakes or volcanic activity. By analyzing the data collected, scientists can monitor ocean health, track marine animals, and study underwater geophysical events. The project enhances our ability to observe and understand the underwater environment without intrusion, providing valuable insights for conservation, scientific research, and maritime safety.
