The main presentation will be:

Acoustic Monitoring of Nocturnal Migrant Songbird, by John Kearney

This talk will provide an introduction to acoustic migration monitoring, an=
 analysis of its advantages and disadvantages relative to other methods of =
migration study, a presentation on the results obtained so far, and some su=
ggestions as to how anyone can set up a microphone in their backyard to sta=
rt listening to migration.

John Kearney, is an environmental anthropologist with forty years of experi=
ence working in a wide diversity of community, academic, and industry setti=
ngs in Canada, South America, and Asia. His publications include numerous r=
eports, journal articles, book chapters, and a book in the field of natural=
 resource management. He has also played a leading role in the implementati=
on of community-based management in Canada. In recent years, John=92s compa=
ny, John F. Kearney & Associates, has specialized in the environmental asse=
ssment of the impact of wind energy facilities on birds in Nova Scotia. A n=
umber of baseline studies and post-construction monitoring projects have be=
en conducted in this new but rapidly expanding industry in the province. Th=
e company has sought to set a high standard of data collection and analysis=
 in order to ensure that environmental assessments protect and conserve bir=
d populations while contributing to the development of an environmentally s=
ustainable wind energy industry. John F. Kearney & Associates has deployed =
acoustic monitoring technology to study the vast number of birds that pass =
unseen over wind farms during their nocturnal migrations in the spring and =
autumn.
