The impact of noise from open-cast mining on Atlantic forest biophony (2015)
Journal Article
Duarte, M., Sousa-Lima, R., Young, R., Farina, A., Vasconcelos, M., Rodrigues, M., & Pieretti, N. (2015). The impact of noise from open-cast mining on Atlantic forest biophony. Biological Conservation, 191, 623-631. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biocon.2015.08.006

The sound produced by human-made machinery (technophony) is known to exert negative effects on animal communication and well-being. Mining is an important economic activity in Brazil, which is often conducted close to forested areas and produces a...

Good neighbours : distribution of black-tufted marmoset (Callithrix penicillata) in an urban environment (2015)
Journal Article
(Callithrix penicillata) in an urban environment. Wildlife Research, 42(7), https://doi.org/10.1071/WR14148

Context: Primates are one of the most charismatic and widely studied vertebrate groups. However, the study of new world primates in green patches within urban areas has been neglected. Such primates have been viewed as a source of human–animal conf... Read More about Good neighbours : distribution of black-tufted marmoset (Callithrix penicillata) in an urban environment.

Determining temporal sampling schemes for passive acoustic studies in different tropical ecosystems (2015)
Journal Article
acoustic studies in different tropical ecosystems. Tropical Conservation Science, 8(1), 215-234. https://doi.org/10.1177/194008291500800117

Among different approaches to exploring and describing the ecological complexity of natural environments, soundscape analyses have recently provided useful proxies for understanding and interpreting dynamic patterns and processes in a landscape.
