Soundscapes and Sound in Nature

Sounds in Nature: Why they matter to Alaskans and how they are measured
The world of sounds and soundscapes was explored in a virtual workshop intended for the public on February 6, 2021. Presenters covered the breadth of sounds in nature as a discipline, from the appreciation and ecological significance of sounds, to how they are measured and managed, and finally to how human-generated noise can disturb Alaskan wildlife. The workshop was co-hosted by the Anchorage Museum, Alaska Quiet Rights Coalition, Alaska Wildlife Alliance, and the National Park Service. List of presenters and topics.
