The symposium reflected an interactive, synthetic process over the past three years that has engaged 30 experts from 20 institutions worldwide. Participants discussed translation of the National Research Council’s 2005 conceptual model on population-level consequences of sound into formal, species-specific, and ultimately transferable mathematical structures. They presented case studies of northern and southern elephant seals, coastal bottlenose dolphins, northern right whales, and beaked whales. The work was supported in part by grant N00014-09-1-0896 from ONR to University of California, Santa Barbara.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mmc.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/PCAD_Symposium_agenda_Oct11.pdf\" rel=\"\">Full meeting agenda<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-two\" class=\"heading-two\" id=\"panelist-presentations\">Panelist Presentations<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mmc.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/Weise_PCAD_Intro.pdf\" rel=\"\">Introduction to the Working Group on Population Consequences of Acoustic Disturbance (PCAD)<\/a> (Michael Weise, Office of Naval Research)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mmc.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/Harwood_PCAD_Oct11.pdf\" rel=\"\">A Conceptual Framework for Evaluating the Effects of Sound on Marine Mammals<\/a> (John Harwood, University of St. Andrews)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mmc.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thomas_PCAD_Oct11.pdf\" rel=\"\">Translating Conceptual to Parameterized Models for Multiple Taxonomic Groups<\/a> (Len Thomas, University of St. Andrews)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mmc.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/Costa_ONR_DC_oct11.pdf\" rel=\"\">Environmental Variation and Experimental Manipulation as Proxies for Disturbance in Elephant Seals<\/a> (Daniel P.
