Cryptics and Cross Words: Listening to Our Native Wildlife
Join Wellington Branch of Forest & Bird for our 2025 AGM and to hear from Prof Stephen Marsland about a fascinating application of mathematics to understand bird song.
Stephen Marsland is a Professor of Mathematics and Data Science at Victoria University of Wellington. Twelve or so years ago he decided that sounds -- specifically bird sounds -- could be described as mathematical objects, and therefore the kind of maths he was interested in could be used for conservation.
It has also led to the AviaNZ software and research programme, which tries to recognise the calls of New Zealand birds.
