Sharks and Subsea Cables: What Ocean EMF Research Reveals About Underwater Electromagnetic Fields

New research on small-spotted catsharks exposed to electromagnetic fields from subsea power cables reveals surprising behavioral changes that could reshape our understanding of EMF effects on marine life. As offshore wind farms expand globally, understanding how electromagnetic fields from underwater power cables affect marine ecosystems becomes critical. This episode explores groundbreaking research on shark behavior and what it tells us about EMF exposure in aquatic environments. In This Episode How sharks use electromagnetic fields for navigation and hunting Behavioral changes observed in controlled EMF exposure experiments What marine research reveals about electromagnetic field sensitivity Featured Study Read the full study: From subsea power cable to small-spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula: Behavioural effects of electromagnetic fields in tank experiments See all studies at shieldyourbody.com/research
