SP3 Digital World and Information Science Biodiversity Informatics Research Biodiversity Automated Multisensor Station for Monitoring of Species Diversity (AMMOD) Tracking biodiversity locally over long periods of time requires a great deal of effort. Microphones and computers could relieve researchers of field work.
SP3 Digital World and Information Science Biodiversity Informatics Research Research Infrastructure Transfer Knowledge Transfer Protection of Species Biodiversity Eavesdropping on biodiversity loss Acoustic recording of animal species in a given area is costly. A sensor system co-developed at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin can provide reliable data quickly and cost-effectively.
SP3 Digital World and Information Science Biodiversity Informatics Research Infrastructure Collection Digitalization Laboratories Legacies of animal sounds collectors Thousands of sound recordings testify to the great passion of two animal sounds collectors. Their recordings have been made accessible at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin.
Biodiversity Informatics Research Mammals Protection of Species Biodiversity Cooperation Neighbourhood test: Agriculture and conservation Conventional agriculture uses pesticides, while organic farming limits their use to a minimum. Researchers investigate how this affects the biodiversity of neighbouring nature reserves.
SP3 Digital World and Information Science Science Data Management Biodiversity Informatics Research Morphology Protection of Species Evolution Hearing in Penguins In a co-operative project with the Deutsches Meeresmuseum Stralsund, we study the hearing of penguins. The MfN is responsible for establishing a database containing audiograms, managing the data, as well as providing environmental education and multimedia material to support the project.
SP3 Digital World and Information Science Biodiversity Informatics Research Research Infrastructure Open Museum Database Mammals Research Data Management Protection of Species Collection Open Science Digitalization Reference library for bat calls Bats are usually detected via their echolocation sounds. In our project, we establish a freely accessible library of calls of European bats to support acoustic species identification and the development of pattern recognition algorithms.
SP3 Digital World and Information Science Biodiversity Informatics Research Research Infrastructure Open Museum Collections management Database Research Data Management Collection Digitalization Developing the animal sound archive as a digital research collection The animal sound archive at the MfN is a unique resource of acoustic records that is now digitally converted to become an effective tool for biodiversity research.
SP3 Digital World and Information Science Biodiversity Informatics Research Research Data Management Protection of Species Biodiversity Automated acoustic detection und acoustic pattern recognition Bioacoustic methods are well suited to record the occurrence, distribution and behavioural patterns in individual animals or populations, thus making a synchronised and continuous record of aspects of biodiversity dynamics over long periods of time, using standardised methods.
SP3 Digital World and Information Science Biodiversity Informatics Research Transfer Open Museum Database Knowledge Transfer Science Communication Protection of Species Citizen Science Open Science Society Nightingale research case – a citizen science project on the natural and cultural history of nightingales For the ‚nightingale research case‘, citizen scientists we will be recording nightingale songs with the Naturblick-App, and scientists and citizens will analyze these in regard to dialects and habitat preferences.
