Drones are being used to measure underwater noise from shipping which the United Nations has said poses a danger to marine life.
Researchers at Strathclyde University said the new technique gives a more accurate reading of noise levels from shipping traffic which can interfere with the ability of marine animals to hear, navigate, communicate and catch prey.
