Journal scope

Research papers

The Bioacoustics journal primarily publishes reports of original research and review articles on animal sound communication.

Conference papers

The journal occasionally includes reports and abstracts or full papers from conferences, in particular those organised by the International Bioacoustics Council (IBAC), as follows:

Other articles

While academic papers form the bulk of the journal, from time to time we publish items which are intended to be of interest to the bioacoustics community in a somewhat broader sense than research papers. These sections are briefly described below. If you would like to comment on these developments or to suggest contributors, please email the Editor.

• Reviews The journal regularly publishes articles and news on techniques and equipment for bioacoustics recording and analysis, reviews of bioacoustics books, CDs and other audio publications, and news of bioacoustics conferences.

• Recent Bioacoustic Publications The journal has a tradition of publishing lists of recent publications in the field of bioacoustics. These lists were compiled by Poul Hansen of The Natural History Museum, Århus, Denmark. References from 1993-2006 are available online on this site, divided into taxonomic or topic groupings as well as in a combined list.

• Personal Perspectives Although bioacoustics is a relatively young discipline, we have a number of senior investigators who have seen, and in many cases been responsible for, rapid changes in the field. This section of the journal allows such individuals pretty much free reign to reminisce, advise on future directions and strategies, and comment on current trends and fashions. William N. Tavolga contributed the first such section in Vol. 6 No. 4, followed by Arthur Myrberg (Vol. 7 No. 2), David Pye (Vol. 7 No. 3) and Murray Littlejohn (Vol. 9 No 1).

• Bioacoustics Research Groups This section is designed to identify active labs around the world so that the rest of the bioacoustics community can discover what they are doing and who is based in the group. The Centre for Sound Communication in Denmark is featured in Vol. 6 No 4, the bioacoustics research group at the University of Maryland featured in Vol. 7 No 1, and The Borror Laboratory of Bioacoustics in vol 8 Nos 3-4.

• News from the Collections An opportunity for major sound archives to inform the bioacoustics community of their role, interesting new facilities, "wish lists" of species requiring recording, etc. A report from the Humboldt University Animal Sound Archive (Berlin) appeared in Vol. 6 No 4, the Wildlife Section of the British Library Sound Archive in Vol 7 No 4, and The Borror Laboratory of Bioacoustics in vol 8 Nos 3-4.

• Noticeboard Somewhat similar to News from the Collections, but concentrating on announcements of conferences and of products and services, for example tape recorders, microphones, spectrum analysers and tape recorder servicing. The section first appeared in Vol. 7.

• Techniques Articles Similar in style to articles we have run in the past, such as that on ultrasound by David Pye (1992, Vol. 4, pp. 77-88).
