00:14

choice best take the relationship between bird densities and noise levels

00:16

so we're trying to find a support for the effects of anthropogenic noise so [text on screen]

00:22

00:30

species child reduce numbers near relatives about a next thing is not the

00:33

study though suggestive did not isolate noise from other possible complicating [text on screen]

00:45

finding birds with high-frequency call it looks like look remember that lower

00:47

frequency okay that's right support it's gotta be d the

low-frequency calls had their calls masked or interfered with well the first

01:04

example explains bird reductions but it doesn't say why they occur so get rid of [writing on blackboard]

01:08

a the second shows that factors other than noise are in play but it fails to

01:12

connect bird density with noise so get rid of E and the third example explains

01:16

that noise and bird calls are linked but well it fails to explain a cause so get

01:20

rid of C so yeah it's D later [bird flies away]
