    Cargo ships generate high levels of noise due to propellers and diesel engines. [79] [80] This noise pollution significantly raises the low-frequency ambient noise levels above those caused by wind. [81] Animals such as whales that depend on sound for communication can be affected by this noise in various ways.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_frequency

    An audio frequency or audible frequency (AF) is a periodic vibration whose frequency is audible to the average human. The SI unit of frequency is the hertz (Hz). It is the property of sound that most determines pitch. [1] The generally accepted standard hearing range for humans is 20 to 20,000 Hz.
