THE SOUND OF MIGRATION: EXPLORING DATA SONIFICATION AS A MEANS OF INTERPRETING MULTIVARIATE SALMON MOVEMENT DATASETS

The sound of migration: exploring data sonification as a means of interpreting multivariate salmon movement datasets

The migration of Pacific salmon is an important part of functioning freshwater ecosystems, but as populations have decreased and ecological conditions have changed, so have migration patterns.Understanding how the environment, and human impacts, change salmon migration behavior requires observing migration at small temporal and spatial scales acros
