Welcome!

Thank you for your interest in Sound Science. Navigate throughout the site to find out more about our projects past and present. Thank you for your patience as we get our organization off the ground (and into the ocean) ~Michelle Fournet, PhD, Director

Sound Science in Action

The line between art and science is sometimes just the cover of a field notebook. #ScientificDrawing #whales #biology #art
Science needs a community, and communities need science. Working together for the last five years we’ve learned that our best research occurs when we collaborate to serve a community need (ecological community or human community). These aren’t just study sites, they are habitats and they are homes. #science #bioacoustics #alaska #SoundScience
Gaining technical skills that were historically “men’s tasks” can be a significant barrier for women in marine science. Not to mention historical stigmas about having women in the field (women weren’t initially allowed in Antarctica because they were told they couldn’t handle the cold or ‘crisis situations’). Our work in Alaska demonstrates a few things: women do just fine in the cold, women do just fine in tough situations, women can drive the boat. #SoundScience #alaska #TakesExperienceToGetExperience #LetHerDrive
What does it mean?! Sound science students are looking into whether humpback whale breaching replaces or augments acoustic communication in Southeast Alaska #whales #SoundScience #science #alaska
Low impact science! Imagine the benefits to the ecosystem - and to the researchers - if we committed to non-motorized sampling wherever possible. Our first few instrument deployments were done by kayak. It’s not always possible, but sometimes... #SoundScience #Bioacoustics #Alaska #research #fieldwork
Had a chance to see to some extremely frisky killer whales! Well of course we dropped a hydrophone #SoundScience #acoustics #fieldwork #killerwhales #whales #alaska. (Photo taken under permit with zoom lens)
Glass calm oceans make deploying and recovering floating hydrophone arrays easy.... but it isn’t always this calm in the North Pacific #SoundScience #Alaska #Acoustics #research
The Sound Science Research Collective has finished its first research season! Follow us here for updates on the research, and to meet the team of scientists and students who dedicate themselves to answering the ocean’s questions #whales #SoundScience #Conservation Photo taken under NMFS permit 19703 with a zoom lens.
