Airgunsignale stören Wale über weite Distanzen

Airguns oder Luftpulser können noch in 2.000 Kilometer Entfernung Meeressäuger stören. Das zeigt eine neue Studie des Umweltbundesamtes. Der Störeffekt kann sowohl die Physis als auch die Psyche der Tiere verschlechtern. Maria Krautzberger, Präsidentin des UBA: „Der Lärm in den Meeren nimmt zu und wird voraussichtlich weiter zunehmen. Allein schon wegen der weiter anstehenden Rohstofferkundungen in den Weltmeeren. Airguns spielen dabei eine wichtige Rolle. Für Meeressäuger sind sie eine erhebliche Störung. Ihre Schallimpulse können die Verständigung von Blau- und Finnwalen extrem einschränken. Im schlimmsten Fall sogar über ein gesamtes Ozeanbecken hinweg.“ Dieser Effekt träte auch dann ein, wenn Airguns nur zu wissenschaftlichen Zwecken eingesetzt werden. Airguns oder Luftpulser wurden entwickelt, um den Meeresboden nach Öl- und Gaslagerstätten zu untersuchen. (more…)
