Landbird conservation biologist working on bioacoustics and boreal birds with Environment & Climate Change Canada.

New paper of interest for folks with large acoustic datasets!

We examined the effects of compressing ARU recordings to MP3 on acoustic indices, recognizer performance, and community listening

New paper in @MethodsEcolEvol! We used classification approaches and acoustic indices to identify boreal birds on audio recordings from different research programs across Western Canada.

[ABMI @ABbiodiversity]

ARUs + large-scale studies combining data sources = lots of heterogenous data. Enter a new @MethodsEcolEvol publication on methods to automatically process and identify boreal bird audio recordings from multiple monitoring programs!

You can read the paper about using sound level measurements from audio recordings to estimate wildlife populations here:

Check out @ellycknight 's breakdown of our latest paper in @RSECJournal using sound level to estimate animal distance, link to paper can be found here: https://t.co/8svMWCzAg6

[Elly Knight @ellycknight]

New paper! We showed that you can use the relative sound level (i.e., how loud something is) to estimate how far away a vocalizing animal is from a recorder.

AND that those distance estimates give you reliable density estimates in a distance sampling framework. 1/n

[Remote Sensing in Ecology & Conservation @RSECJournal]

Can acoustic recorders be used to calculate animal density? Open access paper shows how to automatically & objectively estimate distance from acoustic recordings to obtain reliable density estimates: https://t.co/W6s13NBvd5

@ClaytonTLamb @kirstyjean @Charchuk91 I think signal to noise ratio would be the metric you're looking for

We interrupt our regular nocturnal programming to deploy ARUs by helicopter in a #boreal fen
