Abstract
Soundscape ecology is an emergent area of acoustics that attempts to synthesize the concepts of landscape ecology, bioacoustics, noise, music, ethics, and biogeography. By focusing on the interplay of three main sources of sound: biological, geophysical, and anthropogenic, we hope to understand how humans impact ecosystems at a variety of spatial and temporal scales. Another focus of our work is the identification of special ecological places that possess unique and highly valued soundscapes. I will review the current state of the science and efforts to move this field forward using the expertise across these varied disciplines along with the work that we are conducting in the temperate forest, tropical, and desert ecosystems of North America.
