The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Mechanisms of Fish Sound Production (2015, background): “Long-distance propagation of sound is sometimes heralded as the ideal modality for underwater communication, and whale sounds are commonly recorded in deep ocean (Au and Hastings 2008).”
The soundscape of the Anthropocene ocean (2021, background): “Animals produce sounds for a range of reasons, including navigation, foraging, agonistic displays, territorial defense, mate attraction, andreproductivecourtship( 17 – 19 ).”
Particle motion: the missing link in underwater acoustic ecology (2016, background): “For this reason, a large number of aquatic organisms have evolved ways of detecting and producing sound (Song, Collin & Popper 2015) and aquatic bioacoustics has been an active ﬁeld of study for many decades (Au & Hastings 2008).”
Confusion reigns? A review of marine megafauna interactions with tidal-stream environments (2015, background): “Tidal streams also produce elevated ambient sound levels which can mask cetacean sounds, particularly during peak tidal flow; finally, the rapid flow of water past the hydrophones in the detectors adds self-noise to the data (Au & Hastings 2008, Bassett et al. 2010).”
Measuring acoustic habitats (2015, background): “This has long been standard practice in aquatic bioacoustics (Au & Hastings 2008), where portable field recorders are used to record data from a hydrophone lowered over the side of a drifting vessel.”
