Birds Sing Less

Our interaction with nature being restricted we feel more and more every day. It is now a global phenomenon that leads to a decrease in biodiversity. environmental crisis the one we live in. Depending on the crisis, we encounter changes in every aspect of our life. Scientists conducted a study that showed how the change in the habitat of species and loss of biodiversity due to climate change is rapidly changing the sounds of the natural world.

Sounds of nature, such as reducing stress and purifying mood a magical power there is. Although what we experience in nature appeals to all our senses, I think it would not be wrong to say that what we hear stands out more than others. Based on the species richness and variation seen in the last 25 years, acoustic diversitywas examined with bird-watching data from volunteer ornithologists.

Birds are singing less now

Nature Communication The study, published in the journal more than 200,000 collected by field-dwelling bird surveys annual bird watching data was used. Observations made by ornithologists in late spring and early summer, which species and how many individuals exist were analysed. The research shows that there has been a greater decline in the number of species and the total number of individuals that can be counted in the last 25 years. in regions, acoustic diversity and soundscapes in density a steady decline revealed that.

The results are that the sounds of nature are diminished. a consequence as one of the main ways humans relate to nature. is in decline showed. by research “As natural sounds, which play an important role in establishing and maintaining our connection with nature, are changing due to global declines in bird populations and our world’s soundscapes are becoming more little variety become “ has been proven.

The scientists who carried out the study, the data obtained on the subject, the loss of biodiversity. the realities of made visible crisis awareness He said he hopes to increase it.
