• Acoustic monitoring for conservation in tropical forests: examples from forest elephants (2017, background): “2015) and increasingly in urban environments (Halfwerk et al. 2011; Penone et al. 2013), but little is known about the acoustic intrusiveness of extractive industry in forested environments.”
• A Framework for Understanding Noise Impacts on Wildlife: An Urgent Conservation Priority (2013, background): “Both distraction and elevated vigilance could also cause a decrease in foraging rates and success (ie a trade-off; Figure 3o; Gavin and Komers 2006; Quinn et al. 2006).”
• Reproductive failure of a human-tolerant species, the American kestrel, is associated with stress and human disturbance (2013, background): “There is increasing evidence that humans significantly alter the way organisms perceive their environment, specifically via changes to the soundscape (Barber, Crooks & Fristrup 2010; Halfwerk et al. 2011; Bennett & Zurcher 2013).”
• Animal Communication and Noise (2013, background): “Halfwerk and Slabbekoorn (2009) exposed great tits to experimental playback of white noise, city-like noise (highest energy in frequencies below *4 kHz) or the inverse (highest energy in frequencies between 4 and 8 kHz) in 5 min intervals.”
• Habitat urbanization and its effects on birds (2015, background): “61, 2015 clutches and raised fewer chicks independent of clutch size (Halfwerk et al. 2011).”
• Comparative effects of urban development and anthropogenic noise on bird songs (2012, background): “to song types with different frequency characteristics (Halfwerk and Slabbekoorn 2009). This may represent an alternative mechanism for adapting song to urban environments but may be subject to similar limits of adjustment above and below certain frequencies. We found no effect of noise or urban dev”
• Acoustic monitoring in terrestrial environments using microphone arrays: applications, technological considerations and prospectus (2011, background): “Analyses of acoustic recordings in urban and rural environments throughout Europe have demonstrated that animals alter signal frequency to avoid masking by traffic noise (Slabbekoorn & den Boer-Visser 2006) but also suffer reduced reproductive success in noisy areas (Halfwerk et al. 2011).”
