This new science aims to transform environmental science by recording vocal species 24/7\, providing spatial and temporal data for ecosystem monitoring and research. The Australian Ac oustic Observatory (A2O) was created to realise this vision. It is a uniqu e infrastructure which enables continental scale monitoring of vocal fauna across Australia using a network of solar powered acoustic recorders. All the data generated is made freely available online. To achieve this\, the Open Ecoacoustics project was created which provides an open-source platf orm for storing and managing ecoacoustics data from the A2O and other proj ects.\n\nThe Australian Acoustic Observatory (A2O) consists of a sensor ne twork of 400 continuously recording stations spread over the continent. On ce data is collected tools are used to recognise fauna calls for species o f interest. The tools allow researchers to browse and further analyse the data. The A2O is supported by an Australian Research Council LIEF (linkage \, infrastructure\, equipment and facilities) grant.\n\nOur speaker will b e Professor Paul Roe\, who leads the A2O. Paul's group\, based at Brisbane 's QUT\, has been researching how acoustics can be used to scale environme ntal monitoring. His group has developed the novel hardware and software t ools that are at the heart of the A2O network.\n\nSpeaker(s): Professor Pa ul Roe\, \n\nAgenda: \nIntroduction\, John Gough.\n\nTalk by Professor Roe .\n\nQuestion time.\n\nAfternoon tea.\n\nRoom: S404\, Bldg: S block (Elec.
