Bioacoustics 2007 - Fourth IOA International Conference on Bio-Acoustics 10-12th April 2007 Holywell Park, Loughborough University, UK If you only get to one conference in 2007 - make this the one! Bioacoustics2007 will be the fourth in a series organised by the Institute of Acoustics covering bio-acoustics and bio-sonar. The purpose of the meeting will be to review the present state of this rapidly evolving subject area, to report on new developments and to examine future trends. Equal emphasis will be given to papers dealing with underwater, land-based and airborne studies, covering work on the bio-acoustics of cetaceans, bats, insects and birds. Keynote speakers will include Dorian Houser (Biomimetica) on dolphin sonar, Gareth Jones (Bristol University) on bat echolocation, Barbara Webb (Edinburgh University) on insect acoustics and Robert Dooling (University of Maryland) on bird acoustics. Added attractions will be an after-dinner talk by Richard Ranft, head of technical services at the British Library, illustrated with examples of bioacoustics recordings from the BL collections, and a bat-walk - on opportunity to try out some of the bat detectors that manufacturers will be exhibiting.
