Interactive and independent effects of light and noise pollution on sexual signaling in frogs
Urbanization drastically changes environmental conditions, including the introduction of sensory pollutants, such as artificial light at night (ALAN) and anthropogenic noise.

Anthropogenic noise affects vocal interactions [PDF]
Animal communication plays a crucial role in many species, and it involves a sender producing a signal and a receiver responding to that signal. The shape of a signal is determined by selection pressures acting upon it. One factor that exerts selection on acoustic signals is the acoustic environment through which the signal is transmitted.

Potential impacts from simulated vessel noise and sonar on commercially important invertebrates [PDF]
Human usage of coastal water bodies continues to increase and many invertebrates face a broad suite of anthropogenic stressors (e.g., warming, pollution, acidification, fishing pressure).

Anthropogenic noise and the bioacoustics of terrestrial invertebrates [PDF]
ABSTRACTAnthropogenic noise is an important issue of environmental concern owing to its wide-ranging effects on the physiology, behavior and ecology of animals. To date, research has focused on the impacts of far-field airborne noise (i.e. pressure waves) on vertebrates, with few exceptions. However, invertebrates and the other acoustic modalities they

Behavioral responses to anthropogenic noise at highways vary across temporal scales
Anthropogenic noise is pervasive across the landscape and can be present at two temporal scales: acute (occurring sporadically and stochastically over the shortest time scales, e.g., milliseconds), and chronic (more persistent than instantaneous and ...

Dolphins adjust species-specific frequency parameters to compensate for increasing background noise. [PDF]
An increase in ocean noise levels could interfere with acoustic communication of marine mammals. In this study we explored the effects of anthropogenic and natural noise on the acoustic properties of a dolphin communication signal, the whistle.

Grey seals use anthropogenic signals from acoustic tags to locate fish: evidence from a simulated foraging task [PDF]
Anthropogenic noise can have negative effects on animal behaviour and physiology. However, noise is often introduced systematically and potentially provides information for navigation or prey detection.
