Acoustic Monitoring of Tropical Bats: Saccopteryx bilineata's response to habitat and time across a restoration gradient using a 2D-CNN

The paper develops a 2D-CNN to detect bat calls in acoustic data across a restoration gradient, finding that restoration plots have higher detection rates than forest habitats.

Towards Automated Acoustic Monitoring of Threatened Birds in Tropical Forest Ecosystem Restoration

This study validates the use of passive acoustic monitoring with BirdNET+ for detecting threatened birds in tropical forest restoration, showing moderate success but highlighting the need for careful validation.
