PostDoc Researcher of the Department of Environment of the University of the Aegean

Aggelos Tsaligopoulos holds a master’s degree in environmental policy and management and he is currently a post-doctoral researcher in the Acoustic Ecology Laboratory located in the Department of Environment, University of the Aegean (Lesvos, Greece). He has an extensive experience in sound recordings concerning the anthropogenic and biological elements of an acoustic environment. The knowledge gained through his research in environmental sciences has provided him with the necessary tools regarding the understatement of the biological processes that define both landscapes and soundscapes. His interest in urban ecology and urban quiet areas has proven to be a valuable tool regarding the assessment of noise levels in different types of acoustic environments (both Urban and Rural). Being a researcher in the Acoustic Ecology Laboratory and a member of the Hellenic Society of Acoustic Ecology, has given him the opportunity to co-organize the 4th Acoustic Ecology Conference “Sound – Noise – Environment” which took place in Mytilene (Lesvos, Greece) in 2016. His in depth knowledge regarding the state of the art sound recording techniques and his experience on the appropriate software and tools, has proven to be an important factor on several projects that were successfully completed.
