Bats are an ecologically and taxonomically diverse group accounting for roughly a fifth of
mammalian diversity worldwide. Many of the threats bats face (eg, habitat loss, bushmeat …

Invertebrates comprise the most diversified animal group on Earth. Due to their long
evolutionary history and small size, invertebrates occupy a remarkable range of ecological …

Background Ecological research now deals increasingly with the effects of noise pollution
on biodiversity. Indeed, many studies have shown the impacts of anthropogenic noise and …

To tackle pollinator declines, there is a major need to increase the quantity of flower‐rich
habitats. Road verges offer one such opportunity but are exposed to diverse forms of …

Insects do not live in isolation. They interact with the abiotic environment and are major
components of the terrestrial and freshwater biotic milieus. They are crucial to so many …

Anthropogenic noise is a major pollutant in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Since the
industrial revolution, human activities have become increasingly noisy, leading to both acute …

Highlights•Anthropogenic noise is a ubiquitous and expanding global pollutant.•Noise

Here we provide an overview of work related to anthropogenically produced substrate-borne
vibrational noise. We review the marine and terrestrial vibrational noise literature base …

Noise pollution is pervasive across every ecosystem on Earth. Although decades of
research have documented a variety of negative impacts of noise to organisms, key gaps …

Noise pollution can affect species' behaviours and distributions and may hold significant
consequences for natural communities. While several studies have researched short-term …
