bioacoustica

Bioacoustics 🔊can be utilised to further our understanding of nature whether it's @edwbaker offering insights into early insect acoustics and Ensiferan biology 🦗doi.org/10.1371/journa… or how human noise impacts habitats like the Thames nhm.ac.uk/visit/exhibiti…

This deeply 70s recording studio at the Museum was used to record insect sounds. 🐝 We still look after the collection of sounds recorded, although the studio is long gone.

While testing some new power and ethernet connections for acoustic monitoring @NHM_London I came across some equipment from the old BM(NH) Acoustic Laboratory. Had the pleasure of naming a species first identified by a recording of its song after David Ragge a few years ago.

My PhD thesis is now available via @ResearchGate: tinyurl.com/3azvjuph. I used eDNA and ecoacoustics to: 🦞Detect invasive/endangered crayfish & identify rivers vulnerable to invasion. 🔊Describe pond soundscape ecology/phenology, & provide guidelines for survey design.

Really happy to launch the new "Good practice guidelines for long-term #ecoacoustic #monitoring in the UK", in time for spring. Available here: researchgate.net/publication/36…. Produced by myself at @manchestermet and @abr_eco at @bakerconsultant. with funding from @acoustics_uk

Definition of “mobile” might have changed over time…

We’re hiring a funded PhD fellow in #MachineLearning and #Bioacoustics @AgderUniversity! The fellow will work with acoustic data on 🐟 & 🐸 in the coastal zone @coastresnor & @CairEnglish in ☀️southern Norway! Apply by Nov.14 👉 jobbnorge.no/en/available-j… Please RT! DMs open 😊

Great to see that the @JNCC_UK report I helped to produce, on "Potential of #Acoustic #monitoring to address environmental policy needs" is now available at: hub.jncc.gov.uk/assets/7cfd1a8… Co-authors include @TomAugust85 @mjopocock @edwbaker @_EllaBrowning @sarabssethi @NewsonStuart

@AcousticsMan @KJ_PalmerPhD Not a great deal of urban bioacoustics work either compared to natural settings.

@KJ_PalmerPhD My (relatively uninformed) hunch is (1) more funding and (2) more straightforward training tasks. In urban sounds, we can have many overlapping target sounds which share temporal and frequency space. I want to ID traffic, speech, birds, sirens, etc. all happening at the same time

Proposed changes to Audubon Core - note that one has possibility of setting wider precedent, and one may have implications for existing implementations.
