Citations in the corpus
- Bats as bioindicators – the need of a standardized method for acoustic bat activity surveys (2012, background): “This can lead to differences in the number of recordings at the same site because of the orientation of the detector and may result in biases between sites (Weller & Zabel 2002).”
- Individual legacy trees influence vertebrate wildlife diversity in commercial forests (2004, background): “Bat detectors were located between 5 and 10 m from the trees, placed 1.4 m above the ground and at a 458 angle directed at the tree, a configuration that maximizes detection rates (Weller and Zabel, 2002).”
- Assessing Bat Detectability and Occupancy with Multiple Automated Echolocation Detectors (2008, background): “Typically, the likelihood of detecting bats diminishes with distance from the detector and is affected by variables such as vegetation structure (e.g., clutter, canopy height, and canopy closure—Kalcounis et al. 1999; Patriquin et al. 2003; Weller and Zabel 2002).”
- A plan for the North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) (2015, background): “For example, transmission of 25 kHz sounds is lower in intact forests than in thinned forests (Patriquin and others 2003), and detectors oriented away from clutter record more calls than those oriented towards clutter (Weller and Zabel 2002) due to multiple reflections off of vegetation.”
- Habitat Use by Forest Bats in South Carolina in Relation to Local, Stand, and Landscape Characteristics (2006, methodology): “The Chattooga River, a wild and scenic river, was on the western boundary of the APD and the Chauga River bisected the APD and drained most of the area.”
