However, there are many habitats of marine mammals in this area, so we cannot neglect the environmental problem due to the issue of construction noises produced by the offshore wind farms. The impact range of the construction noise arising from the offshore wind turbine pilling can be precisely simulated, based on the hydrographic, bathymetric and sedimentation data. The result would be taken as a reference for the construction of the offshore wind farms off Taiwan's west coast.
