Visual and acoustic communication signals in birds - taxonomy, evolution and transfer between signals mediated by sensory drive
(UniandesDoctorado en Ciencias - BiologíaFacultad de CienciasDepartamento de Biología, 2016)
The evolution of communication signals is a central, integrative topic in evolutionary biology. In this dissertation, I propose that achieving a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of such signals requires not ...
Climatic breadth of calling behaviour in two widespread Neotropical frogs: Insights from humidity extremes
(2020-01-01)
Climate change is severely altering precipitation regimes at local and global scales, yet the capacity of species to cope with these changes has been insufficiently examined. Amphibians are globally endangered and particularly ...
Three Decades of Subterranean Acoustic Communication Studies
(Springer, 2018)
The subterranean environment has strongly influenced the evolution of the sensory biology of subterranean rodents. While dark and monotonous tunnels have led to reductions in the visual capabilities of some species, other ...
Molecular phylogenetics of Doraditos (Aves, Pseudocolopteryx ): Evolution of cryptic species, vocal and mechanical sounds
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-12-01)
While bird vocalizations (produced by the syrinx) have been the focus of countless studies, mechanical sounds (produced by external body structures) have received much less attention. In particular, the evolutionary interplay ...
Description of the acoustical interaction and synchronization between duetters of the Large-footed Finch (Pezopetes capitalis)
(2017)
Duets are highly coordinated acoustical displays produced by two individuals. Studying the structure of duet songs and its causes is essential to understand the ecological role and evolution of this form of communication. ...
Simplified inverse filter tracked affective acoustic signals classification incorporating deep convolutional neural networks
Facial expressions, verbal, behavioral, such as limb movements, and physiological features are vital ways for affective human interactions. Researchers have given machines the ability to recognize affective communication ...
Are communication activities shaped by environmental constraints in reverberating and absorbing forest habitats?
