Book Synopsis The noise of the bat's flight by : Daniel Manzoni
Download or read book The noise of the bat's flight written by Daniel Manzoni and published by Editora Na Raiz. This book was released on 2022-07-25 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year 2020 the world stopped and we were forced to do a quarantine that became a nightmare. We are already in 2022 and we are still counting the losses. Much of the neglect of the Brazilian government's management with education and science is already beginning to be forgotten. During the year 2020, I was reading and writing an analysis diary of the work “A vida de Galileo” by German author Bertolt Brecht for my second doctoral thesis in the area of literary theory at UNICAMP. The pandemic crisis invaded my reading analyzes of the work that are recorded in the diary I wrote in 1 year when we were wondering if we would have vaccines against COVID-19. The written diary served as the basis for the autoethnographic analysis of the thesis in literary theory of criticism of science and the life of scientists. The decision to publish the diary as a book has the same objective of making the noise of the flight of bats as in the short story “The companions: a blurry story” by the writer Caio Fernando Abreu. Abreu's tale is about a group of fellow political activists who gather in a house and remain completely silent. The only sounds that reach us readers are that of an analytical narrator present who tries to speak for each of those characters who cannot tell their stories; the other sound that all the characters can hear is that produced by the wings of bats that fly outside the house all the time, breaking the silence and disturbing that group of people. This leads us to think that the idea of publishing the diary is to encourage our bats to be very noisy and not to silence the memories. Here we present a bilingual version of the diary (Portuguese/English). Portuguese version: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6653200
Book Synopsis Bat Bioacoustics by : M. Brock Fenton
Download or read book Bat Bioacoustics written by M. Brock Fenton and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably biosonar is one of the ‘eye-opening’ discoveries about animal behavior and the auditory systems of echolocators are front and center in this story. Echolocation by bats has proven to be a virtual gold mine for colleagues studying neurobiology, while providing many rich examples of its impact on other areas of bats’ lives. In this volume we briefly review the history of the topic (reminding readers of the 1995 Hearing by Bats). We use a chapter on new findings in the phylogeny of bats to put the information that follows in an evolutionary context. This includes an examination of the possible roles of Prestin and FoxP2 genes and various anatomical features affecting bat vocalizations. We introduce recent work on the role of noseleafs, ears, and other facial components on the focusing of sound and collection of echoes.

Download or read book Biosonar written by Annemarie Surlykke and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-19 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two groups of animals, bats and odontocetes (toothed whales), have independently developed the ability to orient and detect prey by biosonar (echolocation). This active mechanism of orientation allows these animals to operate under low light conditions. Biosonar is a conceptual overview of what is known about biosonar in bats and odontocetes. Chapters are written by bat and odontocetes experts, resulting in collaborations that not only examine data on both animals, but also compare and contrast mechanisms. This book provides a unique insight that will help improve our understanding of biosonar in both animal groups.

Book Synopsis The Biology of Bats by : Gerhard Neuweiler
Download or read book The Biology of Bats written by Gerhard Neuweiler and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2000 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive introduction to the biology of bats offers a summary of the large body of information about bats that the scientific community has amassed over the years. Gerhard Neuweiler, a leading, internationally recognized expert in the field, assesses the most current information available about physiological systems, ecology, and phylogeny of bats, as well as the biology of mammals in general. The book also features a thorough discussion of echolocation, a topic currently under intense scrutiny. The broad physiological perspective will allow the book to accompany regionally specific studies of bats. With examples taken from European and neotropical species, as well as North American species, this useful volume documents what is currently known about this highly successful and fascinating order of mammals.

Download or read book Bats written by M. Brock Fenton and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are more than 1,300 species of bats—or almost a quarter of the world’s mammal species. But before you shrink in fear from these furry “creatures of the night,” consider the bat’s fundamental role in our ecosystem. A single brown bat can eat several thousand insects in a night. Bats also pollinate and disperse the seeds for many of the plants we love, from bananas to mangoes and figs. Bats: A World of Science and Mystery presents these fascinating nocturnal creatures in a new light. Lush, full-color photographs portray bats in flight, feeding, and mating in views that show them in exceptional detail. The photos also take the reader into the roosts of bats, from caves and mines to the tents some bats build out of leaves. A comprehensive guide to what scientists know about the world of bats, the book begins with a look at bats’ origins and evolution. The book goes on to address a host of questions related to flight, diet, habitat, reproduction, and social structure: Why do some bats live alone and others in large colonies? When do bats reproduce and care for their young? How has the ability to fly—unique among mammals—influenced bats’ mating behavior? A chapter on biosonar, or echolocation, takes readers through the system of high-pitched calls bats emit to navigate and catch prey. More than half of the world’s bat species are either in decline or already considered endangered, and the book concludes with suggestions for what we can do to protect these species for future generations to benefit from and enjoy. From the tiny “bumblebee bat”—the world’s smallest mammal—to the Giant Golden-Crowned Flying Fox, whose wingspan exceeds five feet, A Battery of Bats presents a panoramic view of one of the world’s most fascinating yet least-understood species.
