Rthoptera: Standardised insect bioacoustics in R

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Almost 100 years after the dawn of insect bioacoustics, freely available and robust analysis tools and protocols are still needed. We introduce Rthoptera, an open‐source R package designed for robust analysis of insect acoustic signals.

The physical mechanism of beam formation in dolphin’s biosonar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
作为群居的海洋哺乳动物,齿鲸类拥有着与众不同且功能强大的生物声呐系统。其生物声呐系统经过自然界的长期演化和优胜劣汰,性能已高度优化。海豚的回声定位声波能够在百米内探测到厘米级大小的物体,并对毫米级厚度的金属目标做出辨别,此外还能在探测移动目标的时候对其波束特性进行调整,其性能远远优于目前世界上任何的人工声呐。其生物声呐系统卓越的性能引起了世界上声学研究者强烈的兴趣,不但使得齿鲸类生物声呐研究成为近年来生物声学界以及国际海洋声学界的焦点,还成为新型海洋技术开发值得关注的高新科技领域 ...

animal2vec and MeerKAT: A self‐supervised transformer for rare‐event raw audio input and a large‐scale reference dataset for bioacoustics

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 875-888, March 2026.
Abstract Bioacoustic research, vital for promoting conservation and understanding animal behaviour and ecology, faces a monumental challenge: analysing vast datasets where animal vocalizations are rare. While deep learning techniques are becoming standard, adapting them to bioacoustics remains difficult.

Validated Sandwich ELISA for the Quantification of von Willebrand Factor in Rabbit Plasma

open access: yesBiomarker Insights, 2010
von Willebrand Factor (vWF) is a multimeric plasma protein important for platelet plug formation. As part of its haemostatic role, it is released from endothelial cells during vascular stress or injury and is considered an excellent biomarker of ...

BSG‐BATS: An open‐source data annotation portal and classifier for European bat vocalizations

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 718-726, March 2026.
Abstract Bats are ecologically important mammals whose monitoring increasingly relies on acoustic data. However, many tools for bat call identification remain subscription‐based, closed‐source, region‐specific or limited in scalability, creating barriers to global data integration and method development.

ESPERDYNE: A dual‐band heterodyne monitor and ultrasound recorder for bioacoustic field surveys

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 768-777, March 2026.
Abstract Background. Ultrasonic monitoring is essential for ecological studies of bats and other animals, yet high‐performance field devices remain prohibitively expensive and inaccessible—particularly in biodiversity‐rich regions with limited research infrastructure.

Acoustic Indices Reveal Fundamental Differences in Daily Phenology of Tropical and Temperate Forest Soundscapes

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Forests support the majority of the planet's terrestrial biodiversity, and in recent years the characterisation of soundscapes has emerged as a powerful tool for understanding forest ecosystems, both in terms of ecology and for the purpose of conservation.

Maternal Immune Activation Causes Behavioral Impairments and Altered Cerebellar Cytokine and Synaptic Protein Expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Emerging epidemiology studies indicate that maternal immune activation (MIA) resulting from inflammatory stimuli such as viral or bacterial infections during pregnancy serves as a risk factor for multiple neurodevelopmental disorders including autism ...

Historical Climate and Biome Association Drove Phylogeographic Patterns in the Dwarf Swamp Frog (Anura: Leptodactylidae)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 220-231, March 2026.
ABSTRACT South America, a region with high biodiversity, has been profoundly shaped by geological events during the Miocene and Pliocene, as well as by climatic changes in the Pleistocene, leading to complex phylogeographic patterns. The diverse biomes and the biotic exchanges between them, particularly between the Amazon and the Cerrado, have ...

Prototyping an internet-of-things-based bioacoustics system to support research and surveillance of avian-associated infectious diseases

open access: yesSensing and Bio-Sensing Research
Zoonotic infectious diseases and cross-species pathogen spillover are driven by biodiversity and spatio-temporal ecological interactions. Generating high-resolution data to approximate the presence and absence of animals and their mobility, density, and ...
