April 20, 2020 Le fonds Jean Roché au Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle
Le Muséum national d'histoire naturelle intègre désormais le fonds Jean Roché. Ce fonds représente plusieurs centaines de DAT et de bandes analogique représentant 4.000 heures d'enregistrement et produit plus de 200 ouvrages audio, dont une centaine sur CD.

Chacun peut commencer à en trouver des exemples sur la base de la sonothèque. Nous en sommes au début du traitement. Il faut en effet numériser cet ensemble considérable. Nous avons trouvé un accord avec le Muséum de Berlin pour la numérisation des bandes analogiques.

Pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas ce bioacousticien, je lui ai demandé une note sur sa vie et son expérience.

March 20, 2018 MAAD, a new rational technique to analyse ecoacoustic recordings
Ecoacoustics – a new born discipline that studies population, community and landscape acoustics – requires appropriate signal analysis tools. MAAD is a new unsupervised technique that can estimate automatically and without a priori the different sounds found in a recording.
March 15, 2018 Contribution of bioacoustics in systematics of Muscicapa flycatchers
A recent article on the vocalizations of Muscicapa flycatchers in insular context (Corsica) and on the continent confirms the relevance of the taxonomic treatment recommended by MNHN molecular genetic researchers. Incidentally, this discovery is also that of a possible record in terms of use of high frequencies by a songbird.

The Pihau is a key bird species of the South American tropical forest. The male produce a loud song all the day long which works as a soundmark of the forest. This species-specific sound can be used to monitor population along both time and space scales.
June 22, 2016 Gnominthus: a new cricket genus endemic from Papua New Guinea with ultrasonic calling song
A recent study described Gnominthus, a new genus of Eneopterinae crickets discovered in New Guinea Island (Papua New Guinea), abundant in the forest leak litter and showing a new example of crickets using ultrasonic calling songs.
