Abstract:
This diploma thesis is based on key theoretical concepts of acoustic ecology and soundscape and is divided into two main parts. In first part of the thesis I discussed three main approaches to research of subjective perception and interpretation of everyday sound environment: the ecological approach of WSP, Truax’s acoustic communication approach, and the structural approach of Augoyard and Amphoux of the CRESSON research institute. Concerning each approach I discussed the basic terms and method (or methods) used for soundscape research. In the second part of the thesis I described each phase and made an analysis of the results of the field research of the soundscape of Loreta Square in Prague. The research was done with questionnaires, and two main approaches were used: one place-oriented approach (subjective perception and interpretation of the everyday soundscape of all of Loreta Square) and one sound-oriented approach (subjective perception and interpretation of the sound of the Loreta Carillon). In the following text I will focus on the historical background of acoustic ecology and on the results of field research.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives Despite a proliferation of research in interpersonal perception and aging, no research has identified the nature of the social and emotional perceptions made by aging individuals in everyday life. In this study, we aimed to identify the social ecological features that characterize everyday interpersonal perception across the adult lifespan. Method Three studies were conducted. Study 1 identified and compared the targets and locations of young, middle-age, and older adults’ everyday interpersonal perceptions; these perceptions were categorized into types in Study 2. Study 3 applied these categorizations to identify and compare the social ecology surrounding aging individuals’ interpersonal perceptions. Results Everyday interpersonal perceptions were directed toward familiar others and occurred in familiar locations, although the specific familiar targets and locations sometimes varied significantly with age. However, the types of perceptions made in everyday life did not vary significantly between age groups. Discussion Aging individuals make similar types of interpersonal judgments, but the targets and locations of these judgments may change with age. Future studies on interpersonal perception and aging will need to account for these features of the aging individual’s social ecology to provide an accurate assessment of the aging process.

Abstract:
Landsenses ecology has been widely applied in research into sustainable consciousness and behavior and the notion of landsense creation realizes the unity of the macro physical senses and micro psychological perceptions. However, a great deal of current research about landsenses ecology has concentrated on the dimension of the physical senses, while there have been relatively few studies on the dimension of its psychological perception. This paper begins by clarifying the concept of self and explaining out that the psychological perception mechanism of landsense creation represents a process of guiding people to know themselves and realize their ecological self. It then utilizes the example of low-carbon discourse to explore the factors contributing to the resonance of ecological self-vision. Our results show that the perceived self-efficacy, environmental concern and environmental knowledge triggered by ecological discourse are the main factors contributing to the resonance of sustainable vision, thus clarifying the indicators of landsenses ecology at the level of psychological perception. Our purpose is to effectively guide the landsense creation of harmonious discourse and promote people to engage in potentially more sustainable behavior.

Abstract:
The Natural Perception Hypothesis posits that sensory perceptions of time, space, and stimuli are not universally uniform but are finely tuned by each species' specific evolutionary adaptations. This paper explores how natural selection acts on sensory systems, tailoring perceptions to optimize survival and reproductive success within specific ecological niches. By examining variability in time perception (e.g., critical flicker fusion frequency), auditory perception (e.g., frequency range sensitivity), and visual perception (e.g., color vision and light sensitivity) across diverse taxa, we demonstrate that perceptual adaptations result in unique perceptual worlds. Critically, these perceptual shifts do not merely alter specific sensory inputs but effectively change how the entire environment is experienced by the organism. For example, changes in temporal processing, such as variations in Critical Flicker Fusion Frequency (CFFF), allow organisms to perceive motion differently, fundamentally transforming their interaction with all environmental stimuli. We illustrate how such comprehensive changes in perception have facilitated adaptive radiation and non-linear evolutionary dynamics, using examples like the diversification of cichlid fish through visual adaptations and the adaptive radiation of Anolis lizards influenced by visual signaling. The hypothesis provides a potential explanation for rapid diversification events, such as the Cambrian Explosion, by linking the evolution of new sensory systems to bursts of speciation. While acknowledging other contributing factors, the Natural Perception Hypothesis offers a unifying framework that connects sensory ecology, evolutionary biology, and ecology. Understanding that natural selection acts on perception—and that changes in perceptual traits can redefine an organism's entire environmental experience—enhances our comprehension of biodiversity patterns and has practical implications for conservation strategies and ecosystem management. Recognizing species-specific sensory needs can inform efforts to preserve or restore the perceptual environments essential for species survival. Future research directions include empirical studies on perceptual adaptations, mathematical modeling of evolutionary dynamics incorporating sensory variables, and interdisciplinary approaches integrating genetics, neurobiology, ecology, and behavior to further assess the hypothesis's significance in shaping evolutionary processes.

Abstract:
Millikan's discussion of substance concepts in terms of their information-gathering role ignores the analyses of information-based perception and action developed within the tradition of ecological psychology. Her introduction and use without definition of key Gibsonian terms such as “affordance” and “direct perception” leaves those of us investigating such concepts uncertain of the extent to which she appreciates their theoretical importance. Due recognition of the realist account of categorical perception developed by J. J. Gibson would provide mutual benefit to modern externalist philosophy as well as to experimental psychology and to those investigating the ecological approach to perception–action.

Abstract:
The ecology of the Brisbane River has been subject to damage caused by human activity from colonial times onwards. This damage has been studied scientifically, and is implicated in the Brisbane flood of 2011. I live and work in proximity to the Brisbane River, and it has been central to my practice as an artist. This close engagement with the river has led me to address the issue framed in the research question: how can painting communicate and question the course and impact of human activity over time on the ecology and perception of the Brisbane River? Investigation into Philip Rawson’s analysis of time in art, into the science of Brisbane River ecology, into a range of eco-philosophies – from James Lovelock’s Gaia, to the eco-feminism of Val Plumwood – and into contemporary artists whose work reflects an interest in time and ecology, has been supplemented by theoretical and literary research into the Romantic vision of landscape in colonial painting, and into depiction, representation and landscape, as discussed by Michael Podro, Ernst Gombrich and Simon Schama.<br>Thesis (Masters)<br>Master of Philosophy (MPhil)<br>Queensland College of Art<br>Arts, Education and Law<br>Full Text

Abstract:
Coarse woody debris (CWD) is an important habitat component for wildlife, fish, and plants and is important in nutrient cycling and soil formation. Knowledge of the volume, distribution, and use of CWD across Virginia would be useful to forest managers modeling nutrient budgets in southeastern forests and is important to wildlife management efforts. Knowledge of the effectiveness of informational brochures and cooperative learning activities/presentations at influencing public perception of CWD is important to program design and evaluation efforts in teaching and extension. The objectives of this study were to quantify the relationship between forest cover type and CWD volume, correlate CWD volume with small mammal and bird activity, distribute information on the advantages and disadvantages of CWD using informational brochures and cooperative learning activities/presentations, and compare the effectiveness of such teaching techniques at influencing public perception of CWD. The volume and wildlife use of CWD was assessed within 12 mature second-growth stands in Virginia. Volume of CWD was measured using fixed-area plots. Use of CWD by small mammals and birds was assessed by noting bodily, foraging, or movement evidence. Pre- and post-survey instruments were used to evaluate how perceptions were altered in first year college students who either reviewed an informational brochure or participated in a cooperative learning activity/presentation. Results suggested that the management of CWD for wildlife was most needed in southeastern Virginia where CWD volumes were lowest and that the value of CWD for wildlife was best conveyed through cooperative learning activities/presentations and may be important to landowner education efforts. Results suggested that management efforts to increase CWD volumes in Virginia should focus on coniferous dominated stands where CWD volumes were lowest. Such a finding, combined with the knowledge that the value of CWD was best conveyed through presentations, suggests that landowners of coniferous woodlots could be effectively educated with presentations. Given that brochures were more effective for females than males, brochures addressing natural resource issues might be the most appropriate, cost effective method of education at events that target female audiences. Knowledge gained from this study that CWD management for wildlife would be most appropriate in western Virginia where CWD was most used by wildlife for travel and that presentations were most effective at reaching suburban participants may be important to outreach program design efforts. Regardless of academic major, presentations were more effective at generating positive attitudes toward CWD. The results of this study suggest that the choice between informational brochures and presentations for influencing public perceptions of CWD will likely be influenced by the demographics of the target audience and the relevance of the topic locally.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
The processes by which individuals learn how to perceive, interpret and think about their environment are not completely understood. Sixty years of anthropological studies of indigenous environmental knowledge have largely focused on language-like classification systems. These studies typically revolve around (a) conceptual knowledge such as categories, taxonomies and the functionality of certain flora and fauna and (b) the social mechanisms such as language through which they are transmitted. These approaches have been successful in highlighting variation and continuity between cultures, but more recent studies have shown that environmental knowledge varies within cultures and communities. Research conducted in Bali, Indonesia demonstrates how social labor and symbolic systems may influence several aspects of environmental knowledge, such as perceptual skills, interpretive metaphors and emic models of ecological interactions. The findings in this study address gaps in the literature on how indigenous environmental knowledge emerges, and also supplements the largely theoretical literature on the phenomenology and epistemology of labor.

Abstract:
There are currently 962 geographic sites in the world that have been classified as World Heritage. World Heritage is a unique concept, privy to and defined by UNESCO-- the United Nations, Educational, Scientific and Cultural organization, one of the specialized agencies and autonomous organizations established within the UN-United Nations system. World Heritage is governed by an international treaty called the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, adopted by UNESCO in 1972 (The `Convention'). The inscription of a World Heritage Site or designation of World Heritage Status is highly coveted and considered in UNESCO parlance to be of "Outstanding Value to Humanity." There are only 4 heritage property sites of English-speaking islands in the Caribbean basin, one of which is located on the island of St. Lucia called The Pitons Management Area (PMA). The PMA comprises 2902 hectares of protected marine and terrestrial property inscribed in 2004. In 2008, the island faced the threat of placement on UNESCO's List of World Heritage in Danger (LWHD) for breaches of the Convention. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the perceptions of World Heritage Status from three identified stakeholders: UNESCO, the St. Lucian national government and the local Soufrière township-home of the PMA. This was an exploratory attempt at gauging perceptions of local voices on World Heritage Status as it relates to the PMA and the island's classification as a small-island developing state (SIDS). Using political ecology as a theoretical framework for analyzing the role of power relationships in this case study, this research revealed that there is an overall lack of communication between the Soufrière community and the national government regarding education and sensitizing about the World Heritage program mandates and incorporating the local citizenry in the protection of their heritage. The majority of the local participants' support for World Heritage Status on the island of St. Lucia was dependent on perceptions of increased income and employment opportunities associated with World Heritage as a global construct and narrative. This research also showed concerns of UNESCO and the St. Lucian national government to be at odds with the 1972 Convention. Results indicated that the varied perceptions of the three stakeholder groups are based on the prioritized interests of each and incommensurate with the aims of protecting the PMA's heritage for posterity.

Abstract:
<p>Virtually all diurnal birds have tetrachomatic vision based on four different colour receptors. As a result, birds are potentially able to perceive their environment in twice as many colours as humans and four times as many colours compared to most other mammals, which are dichromatic. In addition to the spectrum visible to humans, birds are able to detect ultraviolet (UV) light. Signals with a UV component have been shown to be important to birds both in foraging and colour signalling. Because of the superior colour discrimination of the avian eye, UV sensitivity, but especially owing to its tetrachromacy, we cannot know what birds look like to those that matter, i.e. other birds.</p><p>In my thesis I describe a new molecular method with which it is possible to identify the vision system of birds only using a small amount of DNA, without the need to keep or sacrifice the animal. It thereby facilitates large screenings, including rare and endangered species. The method has been used to increase the number of species with identified vision system type from 19 to 66. I show that raptors and songbirds have different vision systems, giving songbirds the possibility of a secret channel for colour signalling, and that male songbirds in coniferous forest take advantage of this to be significantly more cryptic to raptors than to females songbirds. I show that gulls have gained a vision system enabling them to detect the UV signals of fish when the fish swim close to the surface.</p><p>Even though we tend to be rather self-satisfied with the quality of our colour vision, we are colour-blind when compared to birds. My work shows that human colour vision is inadequate for judging animal coloration, and that there is much more going on in bird colour signalling than meets our eye.</p>

Suksawang, Wilasinee. Public response to the appearance of ecological landscape design : A case study of Chulalongkorn University Centenary Park. Chulalongkorn University, 2020. https://doi.org/10.58837/chula.res.2020.25.

Abstract:
The appearance of ecological landscape design often causes public dissatisfaction. Precedent texts and studies, especially in the landscape perception and design fields, reiterated the affection for the ‘picturesque’ and the ‘park-like’ landscape of most Americans, resulting in their resistance to the ‘messiness’ of ecological landscapes. This research, therefore, studied how Thais perceive and respond to the look of the landscape, investigating if the ‘picturesque’ and the ‘messiness’ play a role in their perception and appreciation of ecological urban park design in the country. The questionnaires were distributed to gather respondents’ notions of beautiful, natural, and ecologically sustainable landscapes as well as opinions on the ecological landscape design of Chulalongkorn University Centenary Park-a pioneer and epitome of ecological landscape design in Bangkok. Four groups of respondents included park users, affiliates of Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok residents, and landscape professionals. The analysis of 315 responses reveals the attachment to the ‘picturesque’ ideal and the ‘park-like’ landscape, as well as the disinclination for the ‘messiness’ and poor maintenance of most Thais. Also, the ‘picturesque’ conventions, ‘cues to care’ tactic, familiarity, and knowledge about nature and ecology seemed to involve in their perception of beautiful, natural, and ecologically sustainable landscapes. Based on these findings, the research suggests strategies for designing ecological urban public parks in Bangkok in order to achieve not only ecological function, but also aesthetic expression, with the ultimate goal of achieving public positive attitude toward, and widespread support for the ecological landscape projects in the city.

Abstract:
Invertebrates—while understudied and under-sampled—comprise over 90% of animal life on Earth. They are an exceedingly heterogenous ‘group,’ from parasitic worms to lobsters. This module covers the numerous diverse values invertebrates have for humans and ecosystems in general, as well as the threats they face. Invertebrate conservation also has several unique challenges, including taxonomic impediments, lack of species-level information (vs. community level), and lack of concern/public interest derived from a “poverty of riches.” Case study and critical thinking textboxes enhance the model and provide opportunities for further discussion. Accompanying exercises have students explore aspects of invertebrate ecology, economics, and human perceptions.

Hecht, Susanne B. The Natures of Progress: Land Use Dynamics and Forest Trends in Latin America and the Caribbean. Inter-American Development Bank, 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0008989.

Full text
Abstract:
Catastrophic deforestation and environmental degradation have become habits of thought about forest landscapes in Latin America's tropics. Yet these truisms blind analysts to three surprising changes. First, deforestation has slowed dramatically. Next, forest resurgence-largely a function of natural regeneration-is widely documented throughout the region on previously deforested lands. Finally, the importance of tree systems and complex environmental mosaics in working landscapes to produce livelihoods and environmental services and as supporting matrices for conservation is increasingly recognized. These dynamics over the last decade would have been unimaginable in the 1980s, the period that most shaped Euro-American perceptions of tropical forest trends. Deforestation "hot spots", each with a different political ecology, remain and command attention, but it is important to recognize that platforms for alternatives exist. Latin America has become an innovator in tropical environmental policy, institutions, incentives, and practices that support forested landscapes. These dynamics and other related issues will be further elucidated in this document.

Abstract:
The American Academy of Microbiology convened a colloquium September 5–7, 2003, in Charleston, South Carolina to discuss the central importance of microbes to life on earth, directions microbiology research will take in the 21st century, and ways to foster public literacy in this important field. Discussions centered on: the impact of microbes on the health of the planet and its inhabitants; the fundamental significance of microbiology to the study of all life forms; research challenges faced by microbiologists and the barriers to meeting those challenges; the need to integrate microbiology into school and university curricula; and public microbial literacy. This is an exciting time for microbiology. We are becoming increasingly aware that microbes are the basis of the biosphere. They are the ancestors of all living things and the support system for all other forms of life. Paradoxically, certain microbes pose a threat to human health and to the health of plants and animals. As the foundation of the biosphere and major determinants of human health, microbes claim a primary, fundamental role in life on earth. Hence, the study of microbes is pivotal to the study of all living things, and microbiology is essential for the study and understanding of all life on this planet. Microbiology research is changing rapidly. The field has been impacted by events that shape public perceptions of microbes, such as the emergence of globally significant diseases, threats of bioterrorism, increasing failure of formerly effective antibiotics and therapies to treat microbial diseases, and events that contaminate food on a large scale. Microbial research is taking advantage of the technological advancements that have opened new fields of inquiry, particularly in genomics. Basic areas of biological complexity, such as infectious diseases and the engineering of designer microbes for the benefit of society, are especially ripe areas for significant advancement. Overall, emphasis has increased in recent years on the evolution and ecology of microorganisms. Studies are focusing on the linkages between microbes and their phylogenetic origins and between microbes and their habitats. Increasingly, researchers are striving to join together the results of their work, moving to an integration of biological phenomena at all levels. While many areas of the microbiological sciences are ripe for exploration, microbiology must overcome a number of technological hurdles before it can fully accomplish its potential. We are at a unique time when the confluence of technological advances and the explosion of knowledge of microbial diversity will enable significant advances in microbiology, and in biology in general, over the next decade. To make the best progress, microbiology must reach across traditional departmental boundaries and integrate the expertise of scientists in other disciplines. Microbiologists are becoming increasingly aware of the need to harness the vast computing power available and apply it to better advantage in research. Current methods for curating research materials and data should be rethought and revamped. Finally, new facilities should be developed to house powerful research equipment and make it available, on a regional basis, to scientists who might otherwise lack access to the expensive tools of modern biology. It is not enough to accomplish cutting-edge research. We must also educate the children and college students of today, as they will be the researchers of tomorrow. Since microbiology provides exceptional teaching tools and is of pivotal importance to understanding biology, science education in schools should be refocused to include microbiology lessons and lab exercises. At the undergraduate level, a thorough knowledge of microbiology should be made a part of the core curriculum for life science majors. Since issues that deal with microbes have a direct bearing on the human condition, it is critical that the public-at-large become better grounded in the basics of microbiology. Public literacy campaigns must identify the issues to be conveyed and the best avenues for communicating those messages. Decision-makers at federal, state, local, and community levels should be made more aware of the ways that microbiology impacts human life and the ways school curricula could be improved to include valuable lessons in microbial science.
