Survey highlights acoustic ecology applications in protected areas, suggesting future directions for biodiversity and soundscape research.

Acoustic projects in Canada's protected areas detect species and monitor ecosystems, showing evolving trends over 20 years.
An average of more than three acoustic projects per area was identified, with the longest lasting for 18 years.
Research focuses on enhancing detection of aquatic species and analyzing biodiversity changes in soundscapes across Canada.
Commitment to metadata documentation and open data is essential for the future utility of acoustic research in protected areas.

Theberge et al. (2023) studied this question.
