Soundscape Augmentation in Dementia Care Design; Need for a Guideline

We navigate through the environment using our sensory stimuli. Sound is significant in guiding us through space and making us aware of time. Soundscape is an acoustic environment as perceived and experienced by a person. While an unfamiliar and chaotic soundscape can increase anxiety and stress, a well-designed soundscape can make the experience ...

Harnessing edge computing and citizen science: A new prototype design for continental‐scale acoustic monitoring in Australia and beyond

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2295-2308, August 2026.
Abstract Inadequate monitoring of biodiversity is a characteristic of conservation the world over. The potential of acoustic monitoring is compelling, although the challenges remain substantial. Effective solutions require transdisciplinary collaboration among stakeholders, a focus on open‐source development, and flexible, multipronged technical ...

SANE: An index of anthropogenic noise levels for wildlife research in terrestrial ecosystems

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2464-2476, August 2026.
Abstract Understanding the impact of noise pollution on wildlife is challenging due to the complexity of isolating the anthropogenic components from the soundscape. Soundscape studies usually employ acoustic indices that apply thresholds to isolate anthrophony from natural sounds. However, natural and anthropogenic sounds do not always conform to these

Modelling density surfaces from integrated passive acoustic and point count data streams

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2449-2463, August 2026.
Abstract Point counts employing distance sampling methods can be used to accurately estimate animal detection probabilities and absolute abundances, but are difficult to implement over broad spatial and temporal scales. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) via autonomous recording units is an efficient method for monitoring populations of vocalizing ...

The Sounds of the Australian Summer: A Continental‐Scale Inventory of Cicada Ecoacoustics

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Australia has a rich cicada fauna, with over 400 described species including some of the loudest‐calling species in the world. The males of each species produce a unique call for attracting females; these calls are invaluable for informing taxonomy and allowing for species‐level identification.

Urban Acoustic Environments: A Systematic Review of the Integration of Soundscape Theory in Public Architecture

Proceedings of the International Conference of Contemporary Affairs in Architecture and Urbanism-ICCAUA
The impact of urban noise pollution on billions of people across the globe is not yet enough to enable the adoption of conventional noise-control methods that are based solely on the reduction of sound pressure levels.

Reimagining Rural Spaces: Cultural Practices and Aesthetic Design for Active Ageing in Northern Thai Community

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 269-281, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the role of rural aesthetics and cultural practises in promoting active ageing amongst older adults in Baan Pong Nuea Village, Northern Thailand. Addressing a critical gap in the literature, it examines how the residential environment influences elderly well‐being in a rural context.

The Sanitization of the Night: Gentrification and the Everyday Temporal Politics in Belgrade

City &Society, Volume 38, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban scholarship increasingly recognizes that processes such as gentrification unfold not only through spatial transformations, but through shifts in sensory environments and everyday rhythms. In this paper, drawing on twenty‐three months of fieldwork in Belgrade, I examine how urban redevelopment (re)organizes time for middle‐class people ...
