Could conspecific playback stimuli improve detection rate and population estimates in acoustic monitoring?

If your objective is indeed population/density estimation, then, IMO, eliciting reponses violates the basic assumption that detections are not conditioned by the observation. Edit: To address a ...

Could conspecific playback stimuli improve detection rate and population estimates in acoustic monitoring?

In general, I would advise against using playbacks to improve detection rate, though most of my research is in the marine realm, and focused on endangered species, so that perhaps colours my view on ...

Anyone have experience using frequency trigger in AudioMoth?

Megan, Hi. The trigger option within Audiomoth firmware is quite new, so there are probably few people able to comment well on this? However... the use of amplitude-based triggers within the audible ...
