Table of Contents:
- <p>This dataset contains natural soundscape recordings from a woodland near Alice Holt Lodge Pond, Surrey, UK, collected as part of the AHRC-funded <em>Sensing the Forest</em> project (AH/X011585/2). Recordings were made automatically four times a day aligned to solar time — at sunrise, solar noon, sunset, and the midpoint between sunset and sunrise.</p> <p>The recording system is a solar-powered DIY Raspberry Pi audio streamer designed by Luigi Marino. Prior to 28 February 2025, recordings used MEMS microphones; from that date onward, audio quality improved significantly following an upgrade to RØDE LavalierGO microphones with a RØDE AI-Micro audio interface.</p> <p>The woodland is dominated by Corsican pine (planted as a crop in 1992) with mixed broadleaf species including oak, sweet chestnut, birch, and willow. Wildlife present includes roe deer, muntjac deer, bats, and a variety of bird species such as common chiffchaff, coal tit, Eurasian wren, European robin, long-tailed tit, Eurasian blue tit, Eurasian treecreeper, Eurasian siskin, buzzard, and tawny owl.</p> <p>The full dataset is divided into two parts due to file size constraints. <strong>This record contains Part 2 of 2, covering recordings from March 2025 to August 2025.</strong> Please refer to the linked companion record for Part 1 (August 2024 –March 2025). All audio files are in WAV format and are released under Creative Commons 0 (CC0 1.0 — Public Domain).
