Externally Funded Research Projects

AmiBio

In the scope of the EU-funded project "AmiBio" (Automatic Acoustic Monitoring and Inventorying of Biodiversity) we want to determine and observe the status of sound-producing animal groups in the Natura 2000 area "Hymettus" east of Athens.

Among the main tasks of the ZFMK are the inventorying of insects, amphibians, birds, and mammals, the compilation of a reference archive for animal sounds, and the development of a database for project-specific sound recordings.
