Janus general discussion forum

EMission-CONtrol is an important topic in the hydro acoustical world to share the medium. The LOMBARD effect increase the "ambient" noise level. To overcome this, a "keep silent!" parcel could help. To explore it, I would like kindly asking for a forum and an User Application Class.
