Identification et écologie acoustique des Chiroptères, niveau 3

The study of chiropterans using acoustics is now widespread practice. Echoing
to the prevailing thinking that favors the quantitative over the qualitative, and the resignation of sensory analysis in the face of the power of computer analysis, fully automated systems are imposing their rules on the worker on the naturalist production line. These courses in acoustic ecology, which follow a three-level progression, enable each participant to re-appropriate his or her analytical and interpretative skills. By decoding the information contained in chiropteran sound emissions, an observer is able to identify the majority of acoustic contacts directly in the field, right down to the species, thanks to the techniques of heterodyning and time expansion…
