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

Breeding status shapes territoriality and vocalization patterns in spotted owls
Vocal territory defense can vary within a species due to many factors such as sex and breeding status, influencing territory size and thus population density across a landscape.

Invasive alien species are a major threat for biodiversity worldwide and effective monitoring is paramount to inform management. In this study we used a multi‐season occupancy model to assess probability of detection between camera traps and passive acoustic recorders for feral pigs (Sus scrofa) during 1 year of data collection.

Detecting and reducing heterogeneity of error in acoustic classification
Passive acoustic monitoring can be an effective method for monitoring species, allowing the assembly of large audio datasets, removing logistical constraints in data collection and reducing anthropogenic monitoring disturbances.

Soundscape components inform acoustic index patterns and refine estimates of bird species richness
Ecoacoustic monitoring has proliferated as autonomous recording units (ARU) have become more accessible. ARUs provide a non-invasive, passive method to assess ecosystem dynamics related to vocalizing animal behavior and human activity.

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 ...
