Utility of acoustic indices for ecological monitoring in complex sonic environments

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
With the continued adoption of passive acoustic monitoring as a tool for rapid and high-resolution ecosystem monitoring, ecologists are increasingly making use of a suite of acoustic indices to summarise the sonic environment.

Using ecoacoustics metrices to track grassland bird richness across landscape gradients

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Ecoacoustics is an emerging field that allows inferences about biodiversity trends and ecosystem health. Several acoustic indices have been developed for fast, automated assessments of ecosystem condition and are often used to assess changes in species ...

Using acoustic indices in ecology: Guidance on study design, analyses and interpretation

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
The rise of passive acoustic monitoring and the rapid growth in large audio datasets is driving the development of analysis methods that allow ecological inferences to be drawn from acoustic data.

Surgical treatment of acoustic neuroma: Outcomes and indications [PDF]

open access: yesReports of Practical Oncology & Radiotherapy, 2016
Surgery for acoustic neuroma has developed over the years with a gradual improvement in outcome. The goal of surgery should be cure of the disease and a low morbidity, preserving facial nerve function - and hearing, too, whenever feasible (i.e. in small tumors).

Acoustic Sensor-Based Soundscape Analysis and Acoustic Assessment of Bird Species Richness in Shennongjia National Park, China

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Passive acoustic sensor-based soundscape analysis has become an increasingly important ecological method for evaluation of ecosystem conditions using acoustic indices. Understanding the soundscape composition and correlations between acoustic indices and

The efficacy of acoustic indices for monitoring abundance and diversity in soil soundscapes

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Soil ecoacoustics is a rapidly emerging field heralded as a non-invasive method for monitoring soil fauna. Ecoacoustic analysis commonly uses acoustic indices to analyse soundscapes, linking them to ‘traditional’ biodiversity value metrics such as ...

Recognition of Frog Chorusing with Acoustic Indices and Machine Learning [PDF]

open access: yes2019 15th International Conference on eScience (eScience), 2019
This research explores the recognition of choruses of two co-existing sibling frog species in long-duration field recordings using false-colour spectrograms and acoustic indices. Acid frogs are a group of endemic frogs that are particularly sensitive to habitat change and competition from other species.

Influence of recording devices and environmental noise on acoustic index scores: Implications for bird sound-based assessments

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Passive acoustic monitoring serves as a minimally invasive and effective method for biodiversity assessment, particularly in bird monitoring through the application of acoustic indices.

Monitoring Grassland Bird Communities with Acoustic Indices

open access: yesBirds
Several researchers have tried to find relationships between acoustic indices and vocal animal communities to use acoustic indices as a passive monitoring method, as human-derived surveys are expensive, time-consuming, and suffer from observer bias ...

Soundscape components inform acoustic index patterns and refine estimates of bird species richness

open access: yesFrontiers in Remote Sensing, 2023
Ecoacoustic monitoring has proliferated as autonomous recording units (ARU) have become more accessible. ARUs provide a non-invasive, passive method to assess ecosystem dynamics related to vocalizing animal behavior and human activity.
