This study through the passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) sampling technique acquired data to document the response of the acoustically active fauna to forest management types. Specifically, the study evaluated how soundscapes composition and acoustic spaced used (ASU) vary among the three-forest management types, and how the bird community differs among the three forest management types. The findings correspond with the conclusions of other studies that certified forests could maintain levels of fauna biodiversity similar to those of undisturbed primary forest in the Amazon region.
