| Summary: | AHDs with a source level of 179 dB re 1 µPa rms at 1 m were deployed during three consecutive fishing seasons. Fish catches in traps with AHDs were significantly higher than in the controls, while catch damage in the traps with AHDs was lower. However, towards the end of the fishing season catch damage increased in traps with AHDs. |
