  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Subacoustech Ltd have been contracted by The Crown Estate on behalf of Collaborative for Offshore Wind Research Into the Environment (COWRIE) to measure and interpret the underwater noise generated by
offshore windfarms and their construction. 

The purposes of the measurements are to evaluate the pre-existing background noise environment, to rate noise from construction and operation of windfarms in terms of its potential for environmental effect, and to provide information which will aid estimation and minimisation of the impact of noise during the lifecycle
(construction, operation and decommissioning) of windfarms.</dc:description>
