Third International Conference on Acoustic Communication by Animals

Abstract

The long-term purpose of this conference is to bring together senior scholars, mid-career researchers and teachers, young investigators, and students to share ideas, data, and methods in the growing and exciting field of animal acoustic communication. The emphasis of the conference is the integration of information across animal taxa, and the enabling of exchanges between young investigators and more established investigators in the field. Another predominant aim of this conference is to consider acoustic communication, its mechanisms, and the detection of acoustic signals, particularly in noisy backgrounds. At the same time, the intent is to examine communication within the context of how it develops, how it evolved, and its neuroethological basis. The multi-level approach taken by this conference will advance the field of animal bioacoustics.
