Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 249-260, June 2026.Deforestation in the tropics is a major threat to forest‐specialist animals, many of which are already threatened with extinction. We assessed how forest fragmentation and its associated edge‐effects impact animal biodiversity in Northwest Madagascar using soundscape analysis and acoustic indices.

Multidimensional terrestrial ecoacoustics assessment
, 2023 Ecologists faces challenges when analysing environmental acoustic data, such as handling big data, summarising and comparing long-duration recordings across regions and timescales. This thesis provide an innovative framework that combines time-series motif discovery and machine learning for analysing environmental sounds.

Bioacoustic Baselines for Intact Forests
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.The Soundscape Baselines Project is a global initiative to collect and analyse bioacoustic baselines in the world's remaining intact forests. The baseline data are collected using a modular system of passive acoustic monitoring and ancillary data that can be expanded and integrated with other technologies.

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 4, April 2026.The absolute and relative volume of major sensory and integrative brain regions of the southern bluefin tuna Thunnus maccoyii are examined using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A dominant cerebellum projects into the midbrain ventricular space, while the optic tectum represents a smaller proportion of total brain volume than previously estimated ...

Using acoustic indices to detect interspecific bird interactions and behaviour
Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 541-553, April 2026.Communication networks and acoustic interactions play a crucial role in shaping animal communities by mediating information exchange between individuals. These interactions contribute to the biophonic component of the soundscape—the acoustic environment of a place—which is increasingly analysed to understand ecosystem structure and functioning. However,

Optimization of passive acoustic bird surveys: a global assessment of BirdNET settings
Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 785-798, April 2026.BirdNET is a popular machine learning tool for automated recognition of bird sounds. However, evidence on how to optimize its settings for accurate bird monitoring remains limited. Here, we evaluate how BirdNET settings influence model performance in identifying bird vocalizations and characterizing bird communities, using 4224 1‐min recordings from 67

Ecoacoustic indices as proxies for biodiversity on temperate reefs [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Summary Diversity measurement techniques can present logistical and financial obstacles to conservation efforts. Ecoacoustics has recently emerged as a promising solution to these issues, providing a mechanism for measuring diversity using acoustic indices, which have proven to be beneficial in terrestrial habitats.
