Research – Insects

We conduct a broad range of terrestrial, aquatic, and marine bioacoustic research, often at large geographic scales. Many of our projects are applied, featuring a strong focus on the conservation of endangered species. More recently we have engaged in the development of acoustic metrics to assess biodiversity and ecosystem health. We are also researching new ways to collect and analyze acoustic data sets using autonomous mobile systems and algorithm development. Here is an overview of our current research portfolio:

  • Panama Katydids

    Uncovering katydid diversity and behavior on Barro Colorado Island using advanced acoustic monitoring and machine learning to reveal their hidden role in tropical ecosystems.
