AnimalSounds: Animal Sounds for Bioacustic Analysis

Description

NatureSounds is a package containing a collection of example animal sounds for bioacoustic analysis. The main goal is to provide example recordings to faciliate the development of bioacoustic tools in the R environment.

Details

Most data sets are provided as extended selection tables. These are R objects that contains both the annotations (locations of signals in time and frequency) and the corresponding acoustic data as wave objects (see a full description here). Therefore, these are **self-contained objects** since the original sound files are no longer needed to perform acoustic analyses. These objects are created by the function 'selection_table()' from warbleR.

Extended selection table of Phaethornis longirostris songs

Description

'lbh.est' contains an extented selection table following the warbleR package object format. These is an R object that contains both the annotations (locations of signals in time and frequency) and the corresponding acoustic data as wave objects (see a full description here). Therefore, these are **self-contained objects** since the original sound files are no longer needed to perform acoustic analyses. These objects are created by the function 'selection_table()' from warbleR. The data contains the annotations and wave objects of 50 long-billed hermit songs from 10 different song types (5 per song type, 'lek.song.type' column) recorded at 8 leks ('lek' column) in the Caribbean slope of Costa Rica.

Usage

data(lbh.est)

Format

One object of class extended selection table (following warbleR package format) and data frame.

Details

Extended selection table of monk parakeet contact calls

Description

'monk.parakeet.est' contains an extented selection table following the warbleR package object format. The data contains the annotations and wave objects of 52 monk parake calls from four different social scales (flock individual, pair, site, 'scale' column). The 'ID' column labels selections belonging to the same individual when 'scale == "Individual'. See Smith-Vidaurre, Araya-Salas & Wright (2019) for more details.

Usage

data(monk.parakeet.est)

Format

One object of class extended selection table (following warbleR package format) and data frame.

Details

The data contains the annotations and wave objects of 32 Spix's disc-winged bats social calls from 8 individuals ('id' column) belonging to 4 social groups ('group' column). See Araya-Salas et al (2020) for more details. Can be used (among other things) to test for individual and group acoustic signatures.
