This account tweets about animal sound production - cue rates. While this might be interesting per se, we focus on passive acoustic density estimation.
Today at the DCLDE we had our first, last and only in person meeting for the @ACCURATEProject It has been a pleasure to work with a bunch of colleagues and friends on learning more about what we know and what we don't know about acoustic cue production rates in marine mammals
Several members from the ACCURATE project team are this week in Rotterdam for the DCLDE conference. Reliable cue production rates remain one of the major hurdles for density/abundance estimation from passive acoustic monitoring data. https://t.co/a4FUjnoJd8
Recent work led by Julia Zeh & @ProfParksSU on the caller-ID problem (who's doing a sound recorded on a tag) in humpbacks https://t.co/fj85cP2itj The caller-ID problem was the focus of the 1 of @ACCURATEProject tasks. Later this year we hope to have additional news about it!
Our new paper led by Yvonne Barkley and our @NOAA partners is out, looking into sperm whale sound production in Hawaiian waters. Used towed array data, hard to use to estimate cue rates, but very interesting for an area where there are no tagged animals https://t.co/CwXJmvnBDW
Our latest paper reports on narwhal cue production rates from acoustic animal borne tags. Based on a small number of tags from Greenland, care to extrapolate is needed, but this opens the door to PAM density estimation for these elusive creatures https://t.co/WIKH3G685h
New #scicomm video on PAM DE. After the DE process itself, cue rates and detectability, this is about the 4th multiplier, false positives. Another great production led by @MariaSZacarias under the auspices of LMR. Please watch and share. Feedback welcome! https://t.co/b6DrE35moS
Today I delivered a talk about PAM DE with ACCURATE on the background at the BiouacousTalks from @Cornell Thanks for inviting me to do so Ben Gottesman et al. I was stoked to have Chris Clark thanking me for the work we do. Still can't believe that happened😀🥳 #LevelUnlocked !
Might have found my new profile pic with Colleen Reichmuth and Alyssa Accomando (Alex Shorter holding the DTAG), at the LMR IPR meeting in Santa Barbara. Don't do to animals what you wouldn't do to yourself, they say!
The @ACCURATEProject just presented yesterday at the LMR IPR meeting the latest developments regarding cue rates to inform passive acoustic monitoring density estimation. Next year it will be our final year and so we will be working extra hard this year to come in strong!
@jam_machund 🧵on how behaviour can have implications for PAM, using harbour porpoise as a case study, highlingting perils of PAM for density estimation. Behaviour also impacts cue rates, linking the results to the @ACCURATEProject (via @TiagoALOMarques). Outstanding team work.
Delighted to be part of this years' European Research Showcase - the 48 hour research extravaganza! We shared information about @CREEM_cake research including @ACCURATEProject You can "replay" all the action by using hashtag #ERSIntersections and following @GlobalSciShow
This weekend the @ACCURATEProject project was represented at the Explorathon 2023 at the @DundeeSciCentre Communicating our science to the wider public is something we quite enjoy doing ! Thanks to @PopiGk for carrying the flag!
Procrastination aler... Shiny app dev by @morinryan to build a wordcloud from your google scholar. Works pretty well 😇

🙏 @pierre_bat
Our contribution was this one https://t.co/LT1KN6wwKC the product of the work of several undergraduate students from biology @FC_UL with @TiagoALOMarques and children's book author @carylhart1
If you want your teenager to understand how we use sound to count wildlife, you can point them to the paper that we contributed to the special volume https://t.co/lhpcnTMyyv The full volume is available for free, with fascinating insights about sound and how it shapes our world!
On the aftermath of @EuroCetSoc conference we have 200+ followers 🥳Help us spread the word! If you have relevant info about marine mammal cue rates tag us. Follow to learn more about why cue rates are fundamental. Here's our 2022 video on their importance https://t.co/KvcMAt2W8V
In under two weeks we had 2 talks on @ACCURATEProject, 1 at SOI @univofstandrews and 1 @EuroCetSoc#ECSconference2023 Great to have discussions about cue rates, what drives them, how to estimate them and when and how migh cue rates be used to inform PAM density estimation.
