PROJECT DEFINITION
Subject
Natural sciences > zoology (conservation)
Description
Bat Detective is an Zooniverse citizen science project which asks the public to turn detective to find bat calls in audio recordings across the world.
Purpose.
Mapping out bat ‘hotspots’ by using recordings and classifying the sounds they make for echolocation and social purposes.
Research question.
Calls that bats use for socialising are not used for echolocation but communication, and these calls tend to be lower in frequency and have a more complex structure. Only under a third of all the echolocation calls of bats worldwide are known and even less is understood about social calls. Perhaps only 5% of all species social calls have been recorded.
