The way in which terrestrial organisms use the acoustic realm is fundamentally important and shapes behavior, populations, and communities, but how background acoustics, or …
Abstract Linear Transport Infrastructure (LTI) often has important impacts on wildlife and landscape processes. Two reviews provided early insight and nuance into LTI impacts on …
Anthropogenic noise imposes novel selection pressures, especially on species that communicate acoustically. Many animals—including insects, frogs, whales and birds …
Animals modify acoustic communication signals in response to noise pollution, but consequences of these modifications are unknown. Vocalizations that transmit best in noise …
Background noise can interfere with acoustic communication. Signal modifications have the potential to increase signal‐to‐noise ratios and reduce the masking effect of noise …
Anthropogenic noise changes the acoustic environment in which avian signals have evolved, possibly decreasing active space or the area over which signals may be detected …
