Invading the soundscape: exploring the effects of invasive species' calls on acoustic signals of native wildlife

JM Hopkins, W Edwards, L Schwarzkopf - Biological Invasions, 2022 - Springer
The transmission and reception of sound, both between conspecifics and among individuals
of different species, play a crucial role in individual fitness, because correct interpretation of …

Noise impairs the perception of song performance in blue tits and increases territorial response

SR de Kort, G Porcedda, H Slabbekoorn, HL Mossman… - Animal Behaviour, 2024 - Elsevier
Details in birdsong parameters convey information about fitness, quality and motivational
state of the signaller. Perception of these song details may affect decision making of …

Anthropogenic noise affects male house wren response to but not detection of territorial intruders

EE Grabarczyk, SA Gill - PLoS One, 2019 - journals.plos.org
Anthropogenic noise decreases signal active space, or the area over which male bird song
can be detected in the environment. For territorial males, noise may make it more difficult to …

Black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) alter alarm call duration and peak frequency in response to traffic noise

JR Courter, RJ Perruci, KJ McGinnis, JK Rainieri - PLoS One, 2020 - journals.plos.org
Anthropogenic noise is an often-overlooked byproduct of urbanization and affects the
soundscape in which birds communicate. Previous studies assessing the impact of traffic …

Traffic noise and responses to a simulated approaching avian predator in mixed‐species flocks of chickadees, titmice, and nuthatches

H Jung, A Sherrod, S LeBreux, JM Price… - Ethology, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Traffic noise likely reaches a wide range of species and populations throughout the world,
but we still know relatively little about how it affects anti‐predator behavior of populations …

Noise source and individual physiology mediate effectiveness of bird songs adjusted to anthropogenic noise

CM Curry, PG Des Brisay, P Rosa, N Koper - Scientific Reports, 2018 - nature.com
Anthropogenic noise is a pervasive pollutant altering behaviour of wildlife that
communicates acoustically. Some species adjust vocalisations to compensate for noise …

Urban noise restricts song frequency bandwidth and syllable diversity in bananaquits: increasing audibility at the expense of signal quality

GSM Winandy, RP Félix, RA Sacramento… - Frontiers in Ecology …, 2021 - frontiersin.org
Anthropogenic noise can interfere with animal behavior through masking of acoustic
communication. In response to masking, animals may change their acoustic signals as an …

[PDF][PDF] When to change your tune? Unpaired and paired male house wrens respond differently to anthropogenic noise

EE Grabarczyk, MA Pipkin… - Journal of …, 2018 - pdfs.semanticscholar.org
In response to anthropogenic noise, many bird species adjust their song frequency,
presumably to optimize song transmission and overcome noise masking. But the costs of …

Urban background noise affects breeding song frequency and syllable-type composition in the Northern Mockingbird

MJ Walters, RP Guralnick, NJ Kleist, SK Robinson - The Condor, 2019 - academic.oup.com
Abstract The Northern Mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos) is a successful urban adaptor known
to display flexibility in foraging, nesting, and anti-predator behavior. Its vocal behavior is also …

[HTML][HTML] Song adjustments only partially restore effective communication among Baird's sparrows, Centronyx bairdii, exposed to oil well drilling noise

J Waldinger, MH Warrington, K Ellison, N Koper - Animal Behaviour, 2024 - Elsevier
Noise from oil and gas development is pervasive across many landscapes and creates a
novel soundscape that wildlife must adapt to or avoid. In response to anthropogenic noise …
