This paper outlines my research path over three decades while providing a review on the
role of fish sounds in mate choice and reproduction. It also intends to provide advice to …

Monitoring the biodiversity of key habitats and understanding the drivers across spatial
scales is essential for preserving ecosystem functions and associated services …

Passive acoustic monitoring is a valuable tool for non-intrusive monitoring of marine
environments, also allowing the assessment of underwater noise that can negatively affect …

Soundscape ecology has gained prominence in the monitoring of marine ecosystems due to
its non-invasive characteristics and spatiotemporal efficiency. However, the development of …

Sound production represents an integral part of social communication in many teleost fish;
however, few studies have investigated the structure, organization and variability of fish …

Covering more than 65% of the Earth surface, the deep sea (200–11,000 m depth) is the
largest biotope on Earth, yet it remains largely unexplored. The biology of its communities is …

Aquatic ecosystems are constantly changing due to anthropic stressors, which can lead to
biodiversity loss. Ocean sound is considered an essential ocean variable, with the potential …

Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots in urgent need of protection in most areas of the tropical
belt due to increasing local anthropogenic pressures and climate change. Sounds produced …

In this study, we explored the fish acoustic community at two coralligenous sites in Sardinia
(Tavolara and Santa Teresa, western Mediterranean Sea) during the summer 2023. Our …
