Education
We offer training workshops for scientists and students working with animal sounds. These workshops cover basic principles (e.g., digital audio, spectrographic analysis) and specific techniques and software. Throughout our workshops, we emphasize how to avoid common pitfalls and errors in recording and analysis. We also discuss the limitations of acoustic methods and how to set realistic expectations when employing these techniques.
Virtual Lab: Sound Analysis Principles
These materials are designed to provide essential background in bioacoustics concepts and to teach skills for the analysis of natural sounds. The following videos and exercises use Raven Pro 1.6 software and assume a general familiarity with Raven. To learn...
Training Videos: Sound Analysis Software
The Center for Conservation Bioacoustics aims to provide educational and research materials to foster acoustics research and science initiatives around the globe. To supplement instructional educational initiatives through workshops, CCB is pleased to provide complementary training videos and technical tools...
Sound Analysis Workshop
The Center for Conservation Bioacoustics (CCB) at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology offers a week-long introductory-level Sound Analysis Workshop, usually twice per year. The workshop is intended primarily for biologists interested in analysis, visualization, and measurement of animal sounds. We...
Bioacoustics Tools
Researchers at the Center for Conservation Bioacoustics develops tools to aid acoustic analysis and synthesis. These tools help streamlining different parts of the research workflow. This page is dedicated to sharing these tools with the bioacoustic communities at large. Sox-o-matic Sox-o-matic is...
