| Research |
Avian Behavioral Ecology with an emphasis on song. Currently I am working with AM radio transmitters a fixed to birds obtaining more extensive vocal recordings than previously possible. I'm also working on developing a wireless audio array for studies of populations and communities of calling animals in the wild. With others at the U of I and the INHS I am developing tools to process and interpret very large animal audio files. |
||
| Recognition | I am easily recognized. I have a moustache and I'm pretty short and a bit chubby. |
