Current Biology, 2017 The marine environment is the planet's largest, yet in many respects the least accessible. Our human sensory repertoire, with its emphasis on vision and air-adapted hearing, does not serve us well underwater. Underwater vision is often limited and as divers we find hearing of little, or no, use.

Can harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) discriminate familiar conspecific calls after long periods of separation? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 The ability to discriminate between familiar and unfamiliar calls may play a key role in pinnipeds’ communication and survival, as in the case of mother-pup interactions. Vocal discrimination abilities have been suggested to be more developed in pinniped

Aircraft events correspond with vocal behavior in a passerine
Scientific Reports, 2021 Airports can affect birds by hindering acoustic communication. Here, we investigated the impacts of aircraft events on vocal behavior in wood thrush (Hylocichla mustelina) breeding one mile from an airport in Ithaca, NY, USA.

Acoustics in water: synergies with marine biology
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 This paper presents some of the bioacoustics related analysis that was performed on the ANTARES data, focussing on the year 2014. The data was processed for sperm whale, dolphin and shipping presence and grouped by hour of the day.

Seagrass Posidonia is impaired by human-generated noise
Communications Biology, 2021 Solé et al. report morphological and ultrastructural changes in seagrass, after exposure to human generated noise. These data suggest that noise pollution can potentially affect the health status of seagrass and thereby contribute to the depletion of ...
