Decoding Owl Calls: Refining Occupancy Inference From Passive Acoustic Monitoring [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Many territorial species use vocalizations as a primary form of territory defense, and the areas actively defended do not necessarily correspond with an individual's home range.

Worldwide Soundscapes: A Synthesis of Passive Acoustic Monitoring Across Realms [PDF]

Global Ecology and Biogeography
ABSTRACT Aim The urgency for remote, reliable and scalable biodiversity monitoring amidst mounting human pressures on ecosystems has sparked worldwide interest in Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM), which can track life underwater and on land.

Passive acoustic monitoring and convolutional neural networks facilitate high-resolution and broadscale monitoring of a threatened species

Ecological Indicators
Population monitoring is an essential component of biodiversity conservation and management, but low detection probabilities for rare and/or cryptic species makes estimating abundance and occupancy challenging.

Effective ecological monitoring using passive acoustic sensors: Recommendations for conservation practitioners

Conservation Science and Practice
Passive acoustic recorders have emerged as powerful tools for ecological monitoring. However, effective monitoring is not simply an act of recording sounds. To have meaning for conservation and management, acoustic monitoring needs to be properly planned

Will passive acoustic monitoring make result‐based payments more attractive? A cost comparison with human observation for farmland bird monitoring

Conservation Science and Practice, 2023
Result‐based payments (RBPs) reward land users for conservation outcomes and are a promising alternative to standard payments, which are targeted at specific land use measures.

Vocal behavior of false killer whale (Pseudorca crassidens) acoustic subgroups

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Understanding the vocal behavior of cetaceans is an important component of many passive acoustic applications. This study quantifies the vocal behavior of acoustic subgroups of false killer whales (Pseudorca crassidens) from the Hawaiian Archipelago. The

The influence of sea ice on the detection of bowhead whale calls

Scientific Reports, 2022
Bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus) face threats from diminishing sea ice and increasing anthropogenic activities in the Arctic. Passive acoustic monitoring is the most effective means for monitoring their distribution and population trends, based on the
