Amorina Kingdon is a science journalist and fiction writer living in Victoria, British Columbia. While working as a staff writer and researcher for Hakai Magazine covering ocean and coastal science around the world, she became fascinated by underwater sound. The result is her recent book Sing Like Fish - How Sound Rules Life Under Water. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Kingdon introduces us to the emerging science of just how many animals under water, from larvae to lobsters to sea lions, rely on—and are impacted by—sound. Sound travels four times faster under water than in air and conveys a wealth of information about food, threats, and the surrounding environment. Even animals that don’t speak or have 'ears' still find ways to listen. This is why the widespread din of ships, pile drivers, motorboats, sonar, air guns, and other human-made noise is so concerning. https://www.amorinakingdon.com/ Sing Like Fish book: https://www.amazon.ca/Sing-Like-Fish-Sound-Rules/dp/0593442776 Other Ocean Wildlife Sounds Resources: https://fishsounds.net/ https://www.macaulaylibrary.org/ https://www.whalingmuseum.org/research/digital/watkins-marine-mammal-sound-recording/ Listen to Nature Revisited on your favorite podcast apps, on YouTube, or at https://noordenproductions.com Subscribe on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/bdz4s9d7 Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/5n7yx28t Subscribe on Youtube Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/bddd55v9 Podlink: https://pod.link/1456657951 Support Nature Revisited https://noordenproductions.com/support Nature Revisited is produced by Stefan van Norden and Charles Geoghegan.
