Effect of noise on mating success in the common goby (Pomatoschistus microps). Treatment effects (control, intermittent noise and continuous noise) on mating success in year 2015 and 2018 measured as the percent of males receiving eggs. A significantly higher number of males received eggs in both the control treatment (2015: 19 out of 34 males; 2018: 33 out of 67 males, p < 0.001) and the intermittent noise treatment (2015: 16 out of 33 males; 2018: 17 out of 28 males, p < 0.001) compared to the continuous noise treatment (2015: 4 out of 31 males; 2018: 16 out of 65 males). However, there was no significant difference between the control and the intermittent noise treatments (p = 0.64) or between years (p = 0.43).
