Artificial Intelligence Shows Ship Noise Affects Dolphins
Maritime traffic significantly impacts the marine environment and public health. Recent AI technology has confirmed that dolphins are affected by ship noise, altering their communication patterns. This study by researchers at the University of Haifa analyzed dolphin behavior in the presence of ship noise using cutting-edge technology.
Prof. Roee Diamant and Dr. Aviad Scheinin explain, “We were able to show that dolphins communicate uniquely when ship noise is nearby. The effect of this noise on dolphin communication can lead to their movement away from noise sources, impacting their natural habitats.”
Researchers have confirmed how people and dolphins benefit from a centuries-old practice of fishing together in southern Brazil.
The study utilized AI technology to analyze dolphin communication patterns amidst ship noise, shedding light on the impact of human activity on marine life.

The AI system was able to recognize patterns in dolphin communication related to stress and distress, indicating a significant impact of ship noise on these mammals.
The research conducted at the University of Haifa sheds light on the importance of understanding the effects of human activity on marine life, particularly dolphins, and the need for conservation efforts to mitigate these impacts.
