Animals often gather information from other species by eavesdrop** on signals intended
for others. We review the extent, benefits, mechanisms, and ecological and evolutionary …

Many avian species have long been exposed to loud natural sounds such as streams,
waterfalls, and wind. However, anthropogenic noise pollution is a relatively recent …

Alarm calling is a widespread antipredator behaviour. Although the function and evolution of
alarm call behaviour have long been studied in detail, only in the last decade has there …

A long‐standing question in animal communication is whether signals reveal intrinsic
properties of the signaller or extrinsic properties of its environment. Alarm calls, one of the …

Many animals use variation in their alarm calls to warn conspecifics about different predatory
threats. Information about predators can be encoded by producing discrete types of alarm …

Because of the fast rate of wind-energy development it will become a challenge to verify
impacts on birdlife and construe ways to minimise these. Birds colliding with wind turbines …

Alarm calls are interesting for both proximate and ultimate reasons. Because of their usually
close connection with relevant events in the environment, they can reveal much about the …

Alarm calls and food-associated calls from a diverse range of species are said to be
functionally referential, in that receivers can use these sounds to predict environmental …

Research on avian vocalisations has traditionally focused on male song produced by oscine
passerines. However, accumulating evidence indicates that complex vocalisations can …
