• Fitness costs as well as benefits are important when considering responses to anthropogenic noise (2014, background): “If the fitness benefits and costs of responses to anthropogenic noise are to be determined, studies need to include several key elements (see also Slabbekoorn 2013).”
• Not so sexy in the city: urban birds adjust songs to noise but compromise vocal performance (2016, unknown): “The fitness costs and benefits to signalers and receivers of these modified signals are just beginning to be explored (Slabbekoorn 2013).”
• The comparative biology of environmental stress: behavioural endocrinology and variation in ability to cope with novel, changing environments (2013, background): “How organisms respond to a changing environment is an emerging problem that is becoming a greater focus of basic research, especially in the light of global change (reviewed in Visser 2008; reviewed in this issue: Sih 2013; Slabbekoorn 2013; Sol et al. 2013).”
• Understanding variation in behavioural responses to human-induced rapid environmental change: a conceptual overview (2013, background): “Birds from forested habitats with flowing streams often experience lowfrequency background noise and thus have evolved higherfrequency calls (Slabbekoorn 2013); these species do not need to adjust their call frequencies to avoid urban noise.”
• A synthesis of two decades of research documenting the effects of noise on wildlife (2016, background): “, 2010; Kight & Swaddle, 2011), or targeted specific taxonomic groups such as birds (Patricelli & Blickley, 2006; Slabbekoorn & Ripmeester, 2008; Ortega, 2012; Slabbekoorn, 2013), fish (Slabbekoorn et al.”
• Birds living near airports advance their dawn chorus and reduce overlap with aircraft noise (2015, background): “2011; Slabbekoorn 2013; Partecke 2014).”
• Plastic animals in cages: behavioural flexibility and responses to captivity (2013, background): “…2011; Sih et al. 2011) include deforestation, urbanization, climate change, introductions of novel predators or parasites, local extinctions of preferred food items and relocations to new sites (also see papers in this special issue by Sih 2013; Sol et al. 2013; Wingfield 2013; Slabbekoorn 2013).”
