Are there any published or unpublished studies comparing the performance of Audiomoth and other acoustic recorders for bat studies?

I am interested in any comparison between Audiomoths and other brands' manufactured recorders for bat studies, either comparisons between microphone sensitivity, pulses recognition, nº of detections, etc.. Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Adrià! In case it's of interest for you, we will be comparing Audiomoth with SM4 recorders for bird migration sampling in La Garrotxa next autumn. Not truly a bat comparison, but it'll hopefully helps anyway! Rob

Hi Robert,

Did you ever get around to publishing the results of this comparison? I'm currently planning a large-scale monitoring project of birds and bats, and would love to see what you found.

Cheers,

Iqbal

Hi Iqbal, You can find the final report in here: https://parcsnaturals.gencat.cat/web/.content/Xarxa-de-parcs/garrotxa/coneix-nostra-feina/centre-documentacio/estudis/beques_dinvestigacio/2019_BaenaO_migracio_nocturna_aus_GtA/estudi-baena-oriol-migracio.pdf It's in Catalan language but hopefully IA can help you translating it! Page 24 is where you can find the comparison results, as the project also included a long term monitoring of the migration using AM and the report also show results about it. Cheers, Robert
