Factors affecting tranquillity in the countryside. [PDF]

, 2013
yesPrevious work on elucidating the tranquillity of various environments has largely focussed on prediction and validation in urban environments. The setting for the latest phase of research was an English country park and surrounding moors on the urban ...

Fine‐scale observations of spatio‐spectro‐temporal dynamics of bird vocalizations using robot audition techniques

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, 2021
Ecoacoustics needs sophisticated acoustic monitoring tools to extract a wide level of features from an observed mixture of sounds. We have developed a portable acoustic monitoring system called ‘HARKBird’ which consists of a laptop PC and an inexpensive ...

It\u27s Time to Listen: There is Much to be Learned from the Sounds of Tropical Ecosystems [PDF]

, 2018
Knowledge that can be gained from acoustic data collection in tropical ecosystems is low‐hanging fruit. There is every reason to record and with every day, there are fewer excuses not to do it.

Singing streams: Describing freshwater soundscapes with the help of acoustic indices

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Understanding soundscapes, that is, the totality of sounds within a location, helps to assess nature in a more holistic way, providing a novel approach to investigating ecosystems.

Breeding status shapes territoriality and vocalization patterns in spotted owls

Journal of Avian Biology, 2022
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.
