Status, development and trends of studies in fauna acoustics in Colombia
Acoustic signals are one of the most important ways of communication for fauna. The study of acoustic signals constitutes a valuable tool to obtain information on ecology, behavior, taxonomic identification, and the effect of human activities in natural ...

Ecoacoustic bank: A software for ecoacoustics data management
This paper describes Ecoacoustic bank, a software for managing and storing passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) data. The software allows integrating audio with other commonly collected data types, such as information on acquisition systems used and spatial–temporal conditions, to encourage research in biodiversity and environmental monitoring. As part of

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...

BirdNET: Automated Detection for Monitoring Critically Endangered Lemurs from the Maromizaha Forest
In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of integrating PAM with BirdNET, a convolutional neural network originally developed for avian vocalization detection, to monitor two critically endangered lemurs, Indri indri and Varecia variegata, in Madagascar's Maromizaha rainforest.

Bacpipe: A Python package to make bioacoustic deep learning models accessible
Abstract Natural sounds have been recorded for millions of hours over the previous decades using passive acoustic monitoring. Improvements in deep learning models have vastly accelerated the analysis of large portions of this data. While new models advance the state‐of‐the‐art, accessing them using tools to harness their full potential is not always ...

Renewable energy is vital for reducing carbon emissions and yet its infrastructure poses challenges to biodiversity. While the impacts of wind power on bats and raptors are well‐studied, the effects on elusive species remain largely unknown. The Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola, a nocturnal forest bird, performs characteristic courtship flights at ...
