PBS Newshour aired a story featuring Marine Construction Technologies, the Seattle start-up where Herrera’s Associate Scientist Julie Hampden, has been working part-time.

Take a look at the story, and you’ll learn about why underwater noise is an issue, how it is affecting species we care about, and what is being done to help address the problem.
