Description

Explore the science of acoustic environments with Principles of Soundscape Ecology. Written by a founding figure in the field, this book provides a definitive introduction to how sound defines our world. From the songs of tropical birds and frogs to the roar of urban traffic, every sound is a component of a larger soundscape. Learn how scientists categorize Earth's sound sources into three distinct types: biophony, geophony, and anthrophony. Because sound is a constant presence in nature, most animals rely on it to sense and understand environmental changes. This text offers a deep look at how these acoustic elements combine to create the environments we live in. Whether you are a student or a nature enthusiast, this book helps you understand the vital role of sound in the natural world.
