SPECIAL ISSUE: ADVANCES IN SOUNDSCAPE Artistic sound installations can be used to enhance public spaces. This work considers what aspects of the soundscape must be considered when using simulations to plan these installations. doi.org/10.1121/10.002… #acoustics Schulich School of Music

SPECIAL ISSUE: ACOUSTIC CUE–BASED PERCEPTION AND PRODUCTION OF SPEECH This study reveals that preschoolers with speech disorders produce fewer acoustically well-formed syllables and showcases an innovative tool for early speech disorder detection. doi.org/10.1121/10.002…

SPECIAL ISSUE: ACOUSTIC CUE–BASED PERCEPTION AND PRODUCTION OF SPEECH This study demonstrates the feasibility of automatically detecting age-related changes in speech among adult speakers using landmark-based analysis of speech. doi.org/10.1121/10.002… University of Kentucky College of Health Sciences USF CBCS

In JASA, scientists from Aarhus University in Denmark review recent experiments and find that noise regulations may need to be changed to protect porpoises, seals, and other sea-dwelling mammals. doi.org/10.1121/10.001…

Applications for the Robert W. Young Award for Undergraduate Student Research in Acoustics are due 16 September! Five awards of up to $750 each are available in 2024. Details and Application at acousticalsociety.org/wp-content/upl…

Period-doubled phonation is characterized by voicing periods that alternate in amplitudes and/or frequencies. Because of its multiple sets of harmonics and structured variation in periodicity, it is perceived and imitated as a low and creaky pitch/tone. doi.org/10.1121/10.002…

Check out the August cover of JASA! It features "Multi-source wavefield reconstruction of distributed acoustic sensing data using compressive sensing and seismic interferometry." Read it and the other articles highighted on the cover for free this month! doi.org/10.1121/10.002…

SPECIAL ISSUE: ACOUSTIC CUE–BASED PERCEPTION AND PRODUCTION OF SPEECH This study using a speech inversion system confirms the relationship between articulation and acoustics for nasality: doi.org/10.1121/10.002… #acoustics ECE at UMD UC Allied Health Yale Psychiatry Yale Linguistics

This research overturns long-standing beliefs about F0 downtrends in Japanese, revealing that downstep is not directly triggered by accents but rather by phonological boundaries. doi.org/10.1121/10.002… #acoustics NAIST (English)
