Temporally-aware algorithms for the classification of anuran sounds [PDF]

, 2018
Several authors have shown that the sounds of anurans can be used as an indicator of climate change. Hence, the recording, storage and further processing of a huge number of anuran sounds, distributed over time and space, are required in order to ...

A systematic review evaluating the performance of eDNA methods relative to conventional methods for biodiversity monitoring

Ecography, EarlyView.
The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.

Birds, bats and beyond: evaluating generalization in bioacoustics models

Frontiers in Bird Science
In the context of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) better models are needed to reliably gain insights from large amounts of raw, unlabeled data. Bioacoustics foundation models, which are general-purpose, adaptable models that can be used for a wide ...

Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of the Rough-Toothed Dolphin (Steno bredanensis)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The rough-toothed dolphin (Steno bredanensis), the single extant species of the genus Steno, inhabits tropical and subtropical oceans. It is an attractive species for studying aquatic adaptation and evolution.

Effect distances of road traffic noise on wildlife behaviour: A soundscape mapping approach using bird habitat selection

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Road traffic noise is a pervasive environmental pollutant that negatively affects wildlife globally. Despite growing research, quantifying the spatial extent of noise impacts remains underdeveloped. Soundscape mapping from social sciences and engineering literature offers a useful yet rarely implemented tool to depict noise impact distances ...

An Acoustic Treatment to Mitigate the Effects of the Apple Snail on Agriculture and Natural Ecosystems

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Global change is the origin of increased occurrence of disturbance events in natural communities, with biological invasions constituting a major threat to ecosystem integrity and functioning.

Interaction of the phencyclidine model of schizophrenia and nicotine on total and categorized ultrasonic vocalizations in rats [PDF]

, 2017
Patients with schizophrenia smoke cigarettes at a higher rate than the general population. We hypothesized that a factor in this comorbidity is sensitivity to the reinforcing and reinforcement- enhancement effects of nicotine.

Collaborative Sampling and Imaging of Phytoplankton Communities by Two Long‐Range Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Using Acoustic Tracking and Messaging

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Collaborative operation of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) can effectively achieve scientific goals that are hard to achieve by independently operated vehicles. Some science payloads are large, expensive, and need to be installed in the vehicle's nose cone. A vehicle can only carry one such payload.

Vocal complexity in the long calls of Bornean orangutans [PDF]

PeerJ
Vocal complexity is central to many evolutionary hypotheses about animal communication. Yet, quantifying and comparing complexity remains a challenge, particularly when vocal types are highly graded.
