Ecoacoustics for context‐rich direct and indirect trophic interaction data and ecological network construction [PDF]

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Understanding species interactions is critical for ecology and conservation, yet conventional network construction methods often lack spatiotemporal resolution and important contextual information. The growing field of ecoacoustics enables remote sensing

BioSounds: an open-source, online platform for ecoacoustics [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]

F1000Research, 2020
Passive acoustic monitoring of soundscapes and biodiversity produces vast amounts of audio recordings. However, the management of these raw data presents technical challenges and their analysis suffers from bottlenecks.

Hums in the humus: opportunities and challenges for soil ecoacoustics [PDF]

Trends in Ecology & Evolution
Soil ecoacoustics is an emerging field and suite of tools that use sound and vibration to detect belowground biological activity. It offers a minimally invasive way to assess soil communities and ecosystem processes. Across biomes, we found that soil ecoacoustics is being used to detect organisms, quantify animal behaviour, monitor soil health, and ...

Sinusoidal Modelling for Ecoacoustics [PDF]

Interspeech 2016, 2016
Biodiversity assessment is a central and urgent task, necessary to monitoring the changes to ecological systems and under- standing the factors which drive these changes. Technological advances are providing new approaches to monitoring, which are particularly useful in remote regions. Situated within the framework of the emerging field of ecoacoustics,

Ecoacoustics: A Quantitative Approach to Investigate the Ecological Role of Environmental Sounds [PDF]

Mathematics, 2018
Ecoacoustics is a recent ecological discipline focusing on the ecological role of sounds. Sounds from the geophysical, biological, and anthropic environment represent important cues used by animals to navigate, communicate, and transform unknown ...

Perspectives in ecoacoustics: A contribution to defining a discipline

Journal of Ecoacoustics, 2018
Ecoacoustics is a new discipline that investigates the ecological role of sounds. Ecoacoustics is a relevant field of research related to long-term monitoring, habitat health, biodiversity assessment, soundscape conservation and ecosystem management.

Impact of parameterization in multiple acoustic index comparisons: practical cases in terrestrial and underwater soundscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
Acoustic indices are increasingly used to characterize soundscapes and infer biodiversity patterns in terrestrial and marine environments. However, methodological choices during data collection and signal processing—particularly the selection of sampling

Contrastive ecoacoustic indices: Large‐scale global soundscape characterization with contrastive inference

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Ecoacoustics mainly aims at monitoring soundscapes by means of non‐invasive protocols. Despite the widespread adoption of machine and deep learning techniques, existing ecoacoustic models predominantly rely on supervised learning and, consequently, face ...

Monitoring feral pigs (Sus scrofa): Complementarity between autonomous sensing methods increases detection probability

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
Invasive alien species are a major threat to biodiversity, with significant impacts on threatened species and priority sites. Monitoring is essential to inform appropriate management strategies, and autonomous sensors are increasingly used to address ...
