What do rivers sound like? What creatures (or otherwise) contribute to freshwater soundscapes? Our newest research, led by Katie Turlington, provides a new method to explore these types of questions. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #bioacoustics #freshwater

Tech Meets Nature Showcase kicking off now! First up, Kieran from Frontier Labs talking all things passive acoustic monitoring #bioacoustics #nationalscienceweek

A little feature on DETSI's Down to Earth blog in the lead up to National Science Week and our Tech Meets Nature showcase :D #bioacoustics www.detsi.qld.gov.au/our-departme...

I'm excited to share our new (in press) paper on vocal individuality and acoustic recognition. We looked at Red-tailed Black-Cockatoos, Little Penguins, Little Owls, Tree Pipits and Chiffchaffs, with promising results. #bioacoustics #vocalindividuality www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Day for it ☀️

Thanks for having me! #bioacoustics

#bioacoustics community: do you know any online platforms for volunteers to join an acoustics project, validate and label acoustic data (e.g. birdnet detections, false negatives), filter for specific species etc? I asked this a few yrs ago but nothing of the sort existed...

It struck me at our #Publishing Workshop at #ICCB2025 that there is more we can do to help our authors find agency in their decision making when choosing a journal. I highly recommend that all authors consider the following information sources when choosing a journal. 👇 #OpenAccess 🧪

Always devastating to “see” Australia’s extinct fauna. Gone forever. John Woinarski presenting the evidence for the impact of invasive species, esp cats and foxes, on native mammals. #iccb2025

We haven’t talked too much about bioacoustics at this #ICCB2025, but nice plug from @drdave.bsky.social on its potential in monitoring biodiversity on farms. We’ve basically solved the species ID problem - now onto applications! #bioacoustics

Romney Edwards-Francis discusses movement, connectivity, and genetic diversity of red-tailed tropicbirds, following population founding on Lady Elliot Is in 1983. All returned fledglings that reached breeding age are male. #seabirds #ICCB2025 🪶

"Extinction is a choice and one we don't have to accept." Arabella Eyre gives us a powerful reminder that 1% of Aust GDP would achieve this and highlights the extensive work undertaken to try to save the Leadbeater's possum #ICCB2025

Fantastic first day at #ICCB25! Wonderful to connect with colleagues old and new, and forge new ideas. Love the eco friendly name tags too 👌🏼

@martinemaron.bsky.social squeezing How To Fix Offsets (paraphrasing) into 3 minutes. Exceptionally I might add. Key message for me was applying absolute, rather than net gain, the latter inevitably leading to more loss. Standing room only I might add! #ICCB2025 @iccb2025.bsky.social

@hugepossum.bsky.social reminds us it's critical to determine what the management actions are to save threatened species, and then we need to prioritize those actions, & consider the costs of the actions #ICCB2025

Glossy black-cockatoos giving their soft contact calls amidst the meditative chorus of bell miners, delightful. #bioacoustics

🦇👶 batble 👶🦇 @ahanaaurora.bsky.social et al. ( @berlinbatlab.bsky.social) show in @elife.bsky.social that feedback from moms shapes baby bat babbling via "longitudinal ... recordings & behavioral monitoring of ... mother-pup pairs across [multiple colonies]" 🤯 lotta data! #prattle 💬 #bioacoustics

Discover how sound is transforming biodiversity research—from tracking endangered species to understanding ecosystems after fire. 🌏🎙️Register on Eventbrite. 🎤 Featuring: Lola Lange (QUT) Dr Slade Allen-Ankins (JCU) Karen Rowe (Museums Victoria) #Ecoacoustics #Conservation #OpenScience @ardc.edu.au

I'm using BirdNET (default & custom) for almost every project now. It blows my mind how easy ML has become. To think of all the years I spent learning how to build recognisers in monitoR, Kaleidoscope, Arbimon etc ... now I can focus on the fun stuff - answering ecological questions! #bioacoustics

Time to listen to mangroves! #bioacoustics

Preprints in ecology/conservation - yay or nay?

Summer monitoring season in full swing - let’s find those glossy black-cockatoos! #bioacoustics

UPDATE: After almost a decade of using Raven Pro, I just learnt how to review selections from multiple audio files in a single view 😲 Basically, you just need a single selection table. Let me explain... #bioacoustics

#Bioacoustics researchers: what's your go-to software for viewing/validating/labelling large datasets? Anything that can handle info from multiple audio files (i.e. 100s of files) in one place, display them all nicely for easy viewing?

Hey Bluesky 👋🏻 Finally made it. I’m a conservation bioacoustics researcher. I spend most days figuring out better ways to measure biodiversity from sound. Pic of a glossy black-cockatoo, a threatened species I’m privileged to study. #conservation

@daryllmarie.bsky.social Hello! I don’t understand how this app really works, but I am a bioacoustics researcher and keen to contribute! 🙏🏻☺️
