Platformed Atmospheres: How Digital Platforms Reshape the Felt Experience of Family Life

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article develops the concept of platformed atmospheres to address how digital platforms reshape domestic life. Platformed atmospheres are defined as the multisensory and affective environments that emerge when platforms become infrastructural to family life, shaping not only what families communicate but the felt, sensory, and temporal ...

The Effects of Noise on the Juvenile Life Stage of Crustaceans: Behavioral, Cellular, and Molecular Responses in Procambarus clarkii

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Juvenile Procambarus clarkii exposed to noise exhibited behavioral changes, shifts in enzymatic activity, and altered expression of stress and immune genes. The findings highlight the sensitivity of invertebrate juveniles to anthropogenic acoustic pollution.

Environmental and anthropogenic influences on fire patterns in tropical dry deciduous forests

Scientific Reports
Wildfires pose a considerable threat to forests and wildlife, with tropical dry deciduous forests being particularly susceptible. These ecosystems, characterized by seasonal dry periods, create conditions conducive to rapid fire spread.

Assessing the impact of landscape context on soundscape quality in multifunctional urban open spaces

Journal of Urban Management
This study demonstrates the critical role of landscape contextual factors in shaping the acoustic environment and investigates their influences on soundscape quality of microscale functional open spaces in densely populated cities.

Boat Noise Is Associated With Reduced Behavioral Lateralization in Juvenile Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Our results show that boat noise is associated with weaker expression of turning bias, poorer behavioral performance, elevated oxygen consumption, and concurrent gut‐associated shifts in juvenile Larimichthys crocea. These findings suggest that anthropogenic noise may influence not only physiological condition, but also behavioral phenotypes ...

Bacpipe: A Python package to make bioacoustic deep learning models accessible

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
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 ...

Developing a taxonomy of soundscape interventions from a catalogue of real-world examples

Acta Acustica
In recent decades, there has been a growing interest in urban soundscapes and a shift towards a user-focused approach in urban sound environments. Despite this interest, there is no comprehensive taxonomy for soundscape design available. The Catalogue of

Future of edge AI in biodiversity monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Many ecological decisions are slowed by the gap between collecting and analysing biodiversity information. Edge computing moves data processing closer to the sensor, with edge artificial intelligence (AI) using AI models for data processing and selective data transfer.

Movement Responses of Seals During Pile Driving for Offshore Wind Farm Construction

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Despite rapid growth of the renewable energy industry to meet climate change targets, predictions of population‐level impacts on wildlife are currently hindered by a limited understanding of individual behavioural responses to these developments.
