Evaluating acoustic indices in the Valdivian rainforest, a biodiversity hotspot in South America
(Elsevier B.V., 2019)
Passive acoustic monitoring is becoming an extensively used tool to evaluate the status and variation of populations of sound producing animals. The analyses of extensive acoustic recordings for identification and detection ...
Predicting bird diversity using acoustic indices within the Atlantic Forest biodiversity hotspot
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2021-05-07)
A abordagem de índices acústicos em dados oriundos de monitoramento acústico passivo, torna possível sintetizar automaticamente informações de grande volume de dados. Desde o desenvolvimento destes índices, pesquisadores ...
Soundscape structure in forests surrounded by protected and productive areas in central Costa Rica
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2023-03-09)
Ecosystems are under a multitude of pressures, including land-use change, overexploitation, pollution, and climate change. Most studies, resources, and conservation efforts are allocated to protected areas, while anthropogenic ...
Evaluating the efficacy of visual encounter and automated acoustic survey methods in anuran assemblages of the Yungas Andean forests of Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2021-05)
Identifying adequate methods and tools for biodiversity monitoring is fundamental in ecology and conservation biology. Most of the standardised monitoring techniques involve the presence of the researchers at the survey ...
The Caatinga Orchestra: Acoustic indices track temporal changes in a seasonally dry tropical forest
(2021-10-01)
Advances in technologies for data acquisition, storage and analysis have boosted Acoustic Ecology studies, but protocols are still lacking. There is a need of more research to understand which methodologies can be applied ...
New acoustic and molecular data shed light on the poorly known amazonian frog adenomera simonstuarti (Leptodactylidae): Implications for distribution and conservation
(2020-01-01)
Adenomera simonstuarti is a poorly known species complex inhabiting western Amazonia. Here we reevaluate the species diversity within this complex based on previously documented and newly acquired molecular and phenotypic ...
Impact of invasive marmosets (Primates, Callitrichidae) on bird acoustic diversity in a large neotropical urban forest
(2022-01-01)
Documenting the impacts of invasive species on native fauna is challenging and novel remote techniques may contribute to this urgent task. Two primate species, Callithrix jacchus and Callithrixpenicillata, have become ...
Estimating the diversity of tropical anurans in fragmented landscapes with acoustic monitoring: lessons from a sampling sufficiency perspective
(Springer, 2022-09-10)
Determining the distribution and abundance of populations is the first step toward assessing biodiversity conservation status. This step is based on field observations that are largely influenced by the sampling method ...
Acoustic monitoring shows invasive beavers Castor canadensis increase patch‐level avian diversity in Tierra del Fuego
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-08)
The North American beaver Castor canadensis is an invasive species in the Tierra del Fuego Archipelago. Due to this biological invasion, Argentina and Chile signed an agreement to restore affected ecosystems by eradicating ...
