With Soundscape Ecology Almo Farina means to offer a new cultural tool to investigate a partially explored component of the environmental complexity. For this he intends to set the principles of this new discipline, to delineate the epistemic domain  in which to develop new ideas and theories and to describe the necessary integration with all the other ecological/environmental disciplines. The book is organized in ten chapters. The first two chapters delineate principles and theory of soundscape ecology. Chapters three and four describe the bioacoustic and communication theories. Chapter five is devoted to the human dimension of soundscape.  Chapters six to eight regard the major sonic patterns like noise, choruses and vibrations. Chapter nine is devoted to the methods in soundscape ecology and finally chapter ten describes the application of the soundscape analysis.Behavioral sciencesLandscape ecologyUrban ecology (Biology)Applied ecologyEnvironmental monitoringNature conservationBehavioral Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L13009Landscape Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19058Urban Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19160Applied Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19023Monitoring/Environmental Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U1400XNature Conservationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008Behavioral sciences.Landscape ecology.Urban ecology (Biology).Applied ecology.Environmental monitoring.Nature conservation.Behavioral Sciences.Landscape Ecology.Urban Ecology.Applied Ecology.Monitoring/Environmental Analysis.Nature Conservation.333.72Farina Almoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut448035BOOK9910298310803321Soundscape ecology255905UNINA
