Sonic Habitat

A sonic habitat refers to the ambient sound environment in a particular location, encompassing all the sounds that can be heard in that space. This includes natural sounds like birds chirping, wind rustling through trees, or water flowing, as well as man-made sounds such as traffic or machinery. Sonic habitats are important for understanding ecosystems, as sounds can indicate the health of an environment, influence animal behaviors, and affect human experiences. By studying these soundscapes, researchers can gain insights into biodiversity and the impacts of noise pollution.
