📢 New preprint! I’m pleased to share a new preprint, where we evaluated vibroacoustic sensor performance and vibration attenuation through seasonally dry tropical soils. The preprint is now available to read, and the manuscript is currently undergoing peer review. doi.org/10.32942/X27...

And thank you to our Liberian colleagues, especially the Government of Liberia's Forestry Development Authority, Golden Veroleum Liberia, the University of Liberia, and the communities with whom we work in Sinoe County.

We found differences in arthropod order-level composition, spider abundance, species richness, and species-level composition across study systems. This study is important for arthropod conservation and oil palm management, as terrestrial arthropods provide key ecosystem functions

This work was developed from Chapter 1 of my MPhil thesis at @uniofcam.bsky.social. The study focuses on the ecological impacts of converting natural rainforest to traditional ‘country palm’ farms and industrial oil palm monocultures.

We're experimenting with GPS-synchronised soil recordings. The sensors are piezo transducers incorporating a JFET amplifier which plug directly into the AudioMoth's 3.5mm socket. The AudioMoth GPS Hat provides GPS synchronisation. #bioacoustics
