Ecology Letters, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2024.In this study, we expanded the principles of island biogeography to the field of ecoacoustics. We examined the relative importance of island size and isolation in predicting the spectro‐temporal richness of acoustic traits in the landscape, also known as soundscape richness.

The landscape is a trap: Duck decoys as multispecies atmospheres of deception and betrayal
