Abstract

ABSTRACT Technologies to monitor species are constantly evolving including the use of acoustic recordings to determine species presence, activity patterns and population dynamics. The Acoustic Complexity Index (ACI) aims to determine ecologically relevant changes in the soundscape by measuring the variability within biotic sounds whilst remaining insensitive to anthrophony. Previous findings relating to this index and its correlations with avian species richness and diversity, environmental and anthropogenic factors were amalgamated in this review to guide the future use of this monitoring technique. A total of 25 papers were returned following a literature search in June 2020 targeting studies in which these relationships were analysed. Current literature shows inconclusive relationships between the ACI and avian species richness and diversity. Also, those studies analysing relationships between the index, environmental and anthropogenic factors provided contrasting results due to the lack of replication between studies. The future implementation of a standardised approach towards data collection should lead to more compelling conclusions. Relationships between the soundscape and the environment should be evaluated on an individual site basis due to the influence species composition has on the acoustic environment. Further study is required to determine the relationship between anthropogenic factors, the ACI and avian assemblages.

声学复杂性指数与鸟类物种丰富度和多样性的关系

物种监测技术在不断发展，包括利用声学记录来确定物种的存在、活动模式和种群动态。声学复杂性指数(ACI)旨在通过测量生物声音的可变性来确定声景中生态相关的变化，同时对人为声音不敏感。本文综述了该指数与鸟类物种丰富度和多样性、环境因素和人为因素的相关研究结果，以指导该监测技术的进一步应用。在2020年6月针对分析这些关系的研究进行文献检索后，共返回了25篇论文。目前的文献表明，ACI与鸟类物种丰富度和多样性之间的关系尚无定论。此外，那些分析指数、环境因素和人为因素之间关系的研究由于缺乏研究之间的重复，提供了截然不同的结果。未来对数据收集的标准化方法的实施应会得出更令人信服的结论。由于物种组成对声环境的影响，声景观与环境之间的关系应在单个站点的基础上进行评估。人为因素、ACI和鸟类群落之间的关系有待进一步研究。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
