Counting the chorus: A bioacoustic indicator of population density by Amanda K. Navine, Richard J. Camp, Matthew J. Weldy, Tom Denton, Patrick J. Hart

“…Our results revealed significant, strong correlations between call density and distance sampling-based animal density estimates for all species, demonstrating that call density is a reliable indicator of animal density that can be used independently or in combination with traditional monitoring methods. Our analysis uses a fixed amount of manual validation of machine learning classifier output examples, without requiring prohibitively high classifier performance, and is robust to variation in vocal activity rates across time and space, making it both adaptable and scalable. …”
