Temperature

Property

en

The temperature, in degrees Celsius, at which a sound was produced or recorded, or at which an acoustic trait was measured. Many acoustic traits of ectotherms, such as the chirp and syllable repetition rates of crickets, change with temperature, so their values can only be compared when the temperature is known [1].
