Ecological Acoustic Monitoring

Ecological Acoustic Monitoring is a technology used to record and analyze sounds in nature, such as animal calls, bird songs, or underwater noises. By placing microphones in various environments, researchers can collect data on wildlife activity and behavior, assess biodiversity, and monitor ecosystem health. This method can help track changes over time, like the impact of climate change or habitat destruction, without invasive methods. It provides valuable insights for conservation efforts and helps in understanding the role of sound in ecosystems.
