Correction to: Quantifying degradation in animal acoustic signals with the R package baRulho

Abstract

Araya-Salas, M., Grabarczyk, E. E., Quiroz-Oliva, M., García-Rodríguez, A., & Rico-Guevara, A. (2025). Quantifying degradation in animal acoustic signals with the R package baRulho. Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 16, 456–467. https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14481.

In the paper by Araya-Salas et al. (2025), there were some errors in the code in the section 2.1.2.

In the section, # get degradation measures each one in a line of code

degrad_df <- tail_to_signal_ratio(degrad_tests, mar = 0.1) margin to measure tail

should have read

degrad_df <- tail_to_signal_ratio(degrad_df, mar = 0.1) #margin to measure tail

In the section # add transect column

test_data$transect <- paste(sapply(strsplit(test_data$sound.files, ””),

as“[[“, 1), sapply(strsplit(test_data$sound.files, ””), ”[[“, 3))

should have read

test_data$transect <- paste(sapply(strsplit(test_data$sound.files, ””),

“[[“, 1), sapply(strsplit(test_data$sound.files, ”_”), ”[[“, 3))

We apologise for the errors.
