Metadata: 2016, Genesis, Blyth NaREC Offshore Demonstration Site, Noise Modelling and Assessment of Underwater Explosives
Abstract:
The Technical Note in this series presents noise modelling results obtained for the detonation of unexploded ordnance (UXO) that could potentially be carried out for the Blyth Offshore Demonstrator wind farm project. The noise modelling has been conducted considering a wide range of explosive weights in order to present a range of results that should cover the worst case detonations that may take place at the Blyth Offshore Demonstrator development.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 18979 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2016, Genesis, Blyth NaREC Offshore Demonstration Site, Noise Modelling and Assessment of Underwater Explosives |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Noise Modelling and Assessment of Underwater Explosives |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 0c2c437a-e219-40a1-b84e-d1e0e3343d15 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-75 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2016-11-03 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2016-11-03 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | notPlanned |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The modelling approach incorporates an explosive sound source model coupled with an underwater sound propagation model. The explosive sound source model makes use of semi-empirical equations that are based on numerous field measurements, and is used to characterise the sound generated from underwater explosives in terms of peak pressure levels, sound exposure levels, and signal frequency content. The output of the explosive source model is used as an input to the propagation model, which allows for received noise levels in the marine environment to be estimated. The propagation model implements well established and validated algorithms that are extensively used in the acoustic community. The utilised algorithms account for various site-specific environmental properties, and the model incorporates a spatially varying bathymetric grid, geographically and depth varying sound speed profiles in the water column, and geo-acoustic properties of the sediment |
