The sounds produced by geophonic, biophonic and technophonic
sources are relevant to the function of natural and human modified
ecosystems. Passive recording is one of the most non-invasive
technologies as its use avoids human intrusion during acoustic
surveys and facilitates the accumulation of huge amounts of
acoustical data. For the first time, this book collates and reviews
the science behind ecoaucostics; illustrating the principles,
methods and applications of this exciting new field. Topics covered
in this comprehensive volume include; * the assessment of
biodiversity based on sounds emanating from a variety of
environments * the best technologies and methods necessary to
investigate environmental sounds * implications for climate change
and urban systems * the relationship between landscape ecology and
ecoacoustics * the conservation of soundscapes and the social value
of ecoacoustics * areas of potential future research. An invaluable
resource for scholars, researchers and students, Ecoacoustics: The
Ecological Role of Sounds provides an unrivalled set of ideas,
tools and references based on the current state of the field.
