African Bioacoustics Community conference: Call for Abstracts And Registration now open!

3-7 December 2018
Cape Town

We are excited to announce that the first  African Bioacoustics Community conference will be held in Cape Town on the 3rd-7th December 2018.  The conference is open to marine mammal researchers working throughout the globe, but we are particularly interested in hearing from those researchers working within the region and those studying migratory species moving  through the region. 

All aspects of marine mammal acoustic behaviour, effects of noise on marine mammals and issues related to detection, classification, localisation & density estimation of marine mammals would be welcome. 
​The goal of the conference  and ABC is to build links between researchers working​ on all taxa but using the common approach of bio-acoustic methods.

The ABC conference 2018 is hosted by the University of Cape Town, the Centre for Statistics in Ecology, the Environment and Conservation (http://www.seec.uct.ac.za/), and Sea Search Research and Conservation ().
