Lifeplan

Identify Lifeplan bird recordings from around the world and help build a global bird identifier! Bird Sounds Global Phase 2 now open 🦅🦉🐦🦜🦢🦩🦃🦆🐧

In a study led by @AbregoNerea we report global spatial and seasonal variation in fungal assemblages. Paper just now out in @Nature! @jyuscience @uniofjyvaskyla @SuomenAkatemia #Sec5" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4158…

Suomalaistutkijoilla on hurja tavoite: kartoittaa maailman elämä. Siksi ötököitä kerätään, saalistajia kuvataan ja ääniä tallennetaan nyt 151 maailmankolkassa. @helsinkiuni Tomas Roslin kertoo @LifeplanProject'ista Hesarin upeassa 💎jutussa: hs.fi/feature/art-20…

A new #PhilTransB theme issue showcases cutting-edge advancements in the fields of DNA sequencing, computer vision, acoustic monitoring and radar for use in #insect #biodiversity monitoring. Read more: bit.ly/PTB1904

Starting in freezing -13°C - with @LifeplanProject. I hope for the technical issues to be minimal, and potential thieves drowning in the swamps along the way :-).

At @cnr_irsa it's time to switch to our natural Lake Maggiore site for sampling global biodiversity for @LifeplanProject. Ready to discover what's hidden in the @ParcoTicinoPiem woods!

One week of @LifeplanProject #cameratrap sampling in the urban site on campus @Uni_WUE already shows a wide range of #wildlife! Curious what we will sample throughout the year... 🦄

New milestones has been achieved! Over 22k soundscapes annotated covering 672 species. We still welcome more users e.g. from The Americas @AudubonAmericas BSG produces training material for automated bird sound identification with #citizenscience @LifeplanProject #ecoacoustics

New paper: A Successful Crowdsourcing Approach for Bird Sound Classification BSG's pilot project, Kerttu, produced high-quality training data for parameterizing machine learning models: …ractice.citizenscienceassociation.org/articles/10.53… @LifeplanProject #bioacoustics #citizenscience

A much wanted update has been released in Annotate Soundscapes. Users can now browse through all of the annotations and make corrections. BSG produces training material for automated bird sound identification with #citizenscience @LifeplanProject #ecoacoustics #bioacoustics

Visitor to the @LifeplanProject site at #Zackenberg #Greenland a couple of weeks ago.

New paper: A method to account for effects of landscape and distance on automatic species identification from audio recordings. Characterising these effects on-site improved bird sound identification: doi.org/10.1121/10.002… @OpenAcoustics @BirdSoundGlobal #AudioMoth

You can read about the neotropical recording sites of @LifeplanProject, its avifauna and Bird Sounds Global from the latest issue of Neotropical Birding. #ecoacoustics #CitizenScience

What is Lifeplan? @calacademy shows us doing our thing in Madagascar and California beautifully youtu.be/d6WyvLBAyl0

BSG is now available in Spanish 🇪🇸! El objetivo del portal de anotación de paisajes sonoros es producir material de entrenamiento y prueba para la identificación automática del sonido de las aves. bsg.laji.fi/es/identificat… @LifeplanProject @NeoBirdCons @SEO_BirdLife

In BSG's pilot project (Kerttu), crowdsourcing was found to be effective for generating a large amount of high-quality data.

Tommi Mononen (rt) from @LifeplanProject, led by @helsinkiuni, visited the project's field research site @uofg @uogarboretum. CBG's Mikko Pentinsaari (lt) is monitoring this site looking for wildlife, spores in the air, and flying insects. helsinki.fi/en/projects/li…

Joinning Torbjorn Ekrem @norwbol on routine sampling at @LifeplanProject site near Trondheim.
