Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
How vocal organisms share acoustic space has primarily received attention in terrestrial environments. Comparable studies in marine environments, however, remain rare. By recording sounds on a coral reef in French Polynesia for 48 h and 24 h, this study provides first insights on how different sound types are distributed within the acoustic space and may create acoustic niches optimizing acoustic communication within a highly diverse community containing numerous soniferous fish species. Day-time was dominated by two to six sound types, while recordings performed at night revealed a more diverse vocal community made of up to nineteen sound types. Calling activity was distributed over time allowing each sound type to dominate the soundscape sequentially. Additionally, differences in the acoustic features of sounds occurring during the same period were observed. Such partitioning in time and acoustic spaces would reduce potential overlaps of sounds produced by vocal species living in sympatry in coral reefs. |
