An Omnivorous Ear: The Creative Practice of Field Recording
… Omnivorous Ear - The Creative Practice of Field Recording” offers new insights into the history of recording outside of the studio in North America, challenging the various working definitions of field recording in music studies, anthropology, and communications. I examine recording methodologies …

Investigation of acoustic emission in tissue deformation
… apart such as a fabric being torn. As such an acoustic noise maybe emitted and potentially quantifiable in real-time. The aim is to conduct exploratory experiments determining whether acoustic emission during tissue deformation is detectable for future influence of socket design. Animal tissue …

Evaluating the use of acoustic monitoring for surveying tropical birds
In this study I evaluated the effectiveness of an acoustic recording system (SRS) for surveying tropical bird communities and species relative to traditional point count surveys. To address this goal, I compared species richness, composition and detection probability of 20 species between SRS and …

"""I been to hear the highest kind of opera grand"": blues, ""good music,"" and the performance of race on record, 1920-1921"
… suit the composition and the constraints of the acoustic recording studio. “Good music” notwithstanding, the women also frequently utilized twelve-bar blues form, took considerable liberty with notated compositions, employed pronunciation that signaled blackness, and emphasized blue notes, …

Experimental Design, Data Analysis, and Modeling for Characterizing the Three-Dimensional Acoustic Field of a Seismic Airgun Array
In June 2003, the Littoral Acoustic Demonstration Center conducted an acoustic characterization experiment for a standard seismic exploration array. Two moorings with Environmental Acoustic Recording Systems (EARS) were deployed in the northern part of the Gulf of Mexico to measure ambient noise …

Long-Term Ambient Noise Statistics in the Gulf of Mexico
… Office deployed bottom moored Environmental Acoustic Recording System (EARS) buoys approximately 159 nautical miles south of Panama City, Florida, in water depths of 3200 meters. The hydrophone of each buoy was 265 meters above the bottom. The data duration ranged from 10-14 months. The buoys …

Sound use, sequential behavior and ecology of foraging bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops truncatus
… with boat-based monitoring, adjustment, and recording of video. The system was used successfully to conduct continuous behavioral observations of bottlenose dolphins in the Sarasota Bay, FL area. This system allowed me to describe previously unreported foraging behaviors and elucidate …

Northern long-eared bat day roost ecology and novel bat sampling techniques in the mid-Atlantic
… to help increase detection of bats during acoustic surveys. This included developing and testing an experimental ultraviolet (UV) light lure that attracted insects and thereby attracted bats. The lure increased overall bat feeding buzz calls and had a species-specific response, primarily …
