| Title: | Bioacoustic Basic Operations with Decibels and the Passive Sonar Equation |
|---|---|
| Description: | A beginners toolbox to help those in ecology who want to deepen their understanding or utilize Bioacoustics in their work. The package has a number of utilizations from calculating frequency from waveform, performing operations in dB, and determining acoustic range of recorders. The majority of this package is based on key concepts learned from the K. Lisa Yang Center for Conservation Bioacoustics at Cornell University and their associated course: Introduction to Bioacoustics course.

This function finds the length of a sound wave, known as the wavelength (m), or frequency of a sound (Hz), given the identity of the input. The speed of sound is the default in air (340 m/s). You may calculate your own value for c relative to the conditions present in your ecosystem of study via soundSpeed().
wof(b, c = 340)wof(b, c = 340)
b |
The known wavelength (m) or frequency (Hz). |
c |
The speed of sound in m/s. As a general rule of thumb, however, c is equal to 1500 m/s in saltwater and 350 m/s in air. Note that the distinction between freshwater and saltwater is important. Sound speed is faster in saltwater than freshwater. |
