In the context of the ongoing DFG project within the LLP "The influence of green infrastructure on the acoustic environment" and to answer research questions 2 and 3, we are developing an acoustic dataset stratified by habitat type. Using automatic SM4 sound recorders, we are developing a longitudinal acoustic dataset in 17 habitat types in Visbeck, which will be compared with 17 similar reference habitat types in the regionally adjacent nature reserves Die Haard, Borkenberg and Haltern (Fig. 2). This comparative analysis is the basis for understanding bird species diversity and contribution to quiet areas in Visbeck and in comparison to our reference areas.
