Beschreibung
Dense Fogs Clear explores the hidden world of sensory ecology, revealing how animals navigate and communicate in forests when vision is limited. It delves into the crucial role of non-visual cues like sound and wind, showcasing their importance for survival and ecological function.
The book highlights intriguing facts, such as how certain insects use subtle wind patterns to locate food sources, and how some mammals rely on complex soundscapes to avoid predators.
The book provides a logical progression, beginning with the physics of sound and wind in forests, then examining animal adaptations, and finally analyzing the impact of environmental changes such as deforestation.
It argues that understanding these non-visual cues is increasingly vital, especially as human activities alter environmental conditions and reduce visibility. By bridging ecology, physics, and engineering, Dense Fogs Clear offers a comprehensive understanding of sensory ecology, emphasizing the practical applications for wildlife conservation and environmental management.
