Too Much Noise in the Oceans

"High profile whale beachings have been linked to sonar blasts and sparked fierce public debate over the military's use of sound in national defense. But a broader concern for scientists is rising levels of ocean background noise, much of it generated by commercial shipping, and whether it interferes with the way the entire sea has operated for eons." - excerpt from the article at http://www.southcoasttoday.com/daily/03-05/03-20-05/b01pe939.htm
