Bioacoustic Monitoring in the Terrestrial Environment: A Workshop at the UCR James Reserve, July, 2008

丹尼尔T博士获得了一笔赠款。作者：Charles E.泰勒和Kung Yao在加州洛杉矶大学主办的研讨会，将汇集当前和潜在的用户的生物声传感器阵列技术与工程师和计算机科学专家，以确定需求和当前的能力，并优先技术开发和研究问题。会议将在詹姆斯储备，加州大学的一个野外工作站，以尖端传感器阵列技术的部署而闻名。 会议将有一系列的主题演讲和分组讨论，来自不同领域的研究人员将合作编写一份立场文件。这项工作的更广泛意义是促进开发强大，易于使用的声学传感器阵列，其用户界面适合动物行为和生态学研究人员，激发有前途的学生对这项技术的开发和应用，并为人数不足的工科学生提供前沿知识和技术经验，鼓励他们继续深造或继续攻读博士学位。

A grant has been awarded to Drs. Daniel T. Blumstein, Charles E. Taylor and Kung Yao at the University of California Los Angeles to host a workshop that will bring together current and potential users of bioacoustic sensor array technology with engineers and computer science experts to identify needs and current abilities, and to prioritize technology development and research questions.The meeting will be held at the James Reserve, a University of California Field Station notable for the degree to which cutting edge sensor array technology has been deployed. The meeting will have a series of keynote talks and break-out groups where researchers from different fields will collaborate to develop a position paper.The broader significance of this work is to facilitate the development of robust, easy-to-use acoustic sensor arrays with user interfaces appropriate for researchers in animal behavior and ecology, to excite promising students about the development and application of this technology, and to provide underrepresented engineering students a frontier intellectual and technical experience to encourage them to pursue advance study or to continue to the doctorate.
