Bernie Krause and Almo Farina — Using Ecoacoustic Methods to Survey the Impacts of Climate Change on Biodiversity

10 published claims from this book.

• Acoustic diversity mirrors species diversity only in tropical biomes.
• Chickadees pitch-shift incoming biophonic signals to create their own private bandwidth.
• Climate change alters how far animal acoustic signals travel.
• Comparable ecoacoustics findings demand synchronized global recording standards.
• Dawn chorus intensity signals habitat resource availability
• Drought-stressed trees broadcast ultrasound that may attract insect pests.
• Ecoacoustic surveys follow a standardized recording-analysis workflow
• Novel acoustic intruders disrupt frequency partitioning and vocal competition
• Social context can override temperature effects on frog calling
• Species in a habitat partition acoustic space into distinct non-overlapping bandwidths.
