Aquatic soundscape workshop
Asian Soundscape is the first open platform of soundscapes in Southeast Asia. By sharing the open tools and data, the aim of Asian Soundscape is to promote international collaborations of soundscape ecology. This workshop invites scientists from Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the Philippines to discuss the application of soundscapes in the monitoring of marine ecosystem dynamics.
