@MarkScherz Looks more like a digital effect to me. I think you’re saturating the digital dynamic range of your system.
Does your system/rec software have some settings about the ADconverter, or some digital amplification, or max digital dynamic range?

🦇 Is the barbastelle bat's hunting on moths with low-intensity echolocation the classic example for predator-prey coevolution it was thought to be? No, a new study says, showing that its hunting strategy likely evolved from a quiet gleaning ancestor and is not a direct adaption to its preys’ hearing ability: https://t.co/Y1GIKNQAFS

Researchers compiled a dataset with a comprehensive collection of 1018 BIN species which make up the diet of the bats Myotis myotis and M. blythii in Bulgaria: https://t.co/EZDn5A3HYs

Using #metabarcoding, researchers have analysed faecal samples of lesser mouse-eared bats in Bulgaria. A dataset of the consumed prey species and parasites has been created: https://t.co/EZDn5A3HYs

ACROSS ACOUSTICS

Have you listened to our latest episode yet? Researchers know that bats will alter the calls they use for echolocation depending on their task or environment. Will they change their calls based on the weather? https://t.co/so7J7s7wei

“Bad” weather for bats? 🦇☔ Temperature and humidity affect ultrasound. Scientists from our institute examined the effects of weather on the echolocation calls of three bat species and found that even though some slightly adapt their calls to “bad” weather, they don’t compensate the decrease in detection range.

Happy to share this work on the hunting behavior of greater mouse-eared bats 🦇🌕
Turns out, they like a big, chunky beetle even though they are much harder to catch than smaller moths

Warum rufen Fledermäuse🦇📢 SOOO LAUT wie ein Presslufthammer? Nur aber die Mopsfledermaus nicht?? Und was hat das mit ihrer Beute zu tun???

You know all those taxidermied bats on @Etsy that are listed as “ethically sourced”? Yeah, that’s bullshit. Here are two red flags, using “World of Wonders Deco” as an example.

What bat researchers do. Today: occupational health check on allergy against meal worms (= bat food)… 🤧🦇🤪

@AHubancheva So good to see the Tabachka landscape again! (and the bats and moths, of course 😉)
