Ep 16 with Aarini Close Your Eyes and Listen to the Forest

Aarini Ghosh, a bioacoustics researcher, takes us on a journey into the soundscape of Meghalaya's lush green tropical forests, where she discovered one new species of Bush Crickets (Katydid)! Aarini has also discovered two new species of Katydids from Haryana.
Aarini narrates her ups and downs in the fieldwork at Meghalaya, being a queer person and working at night to capture nocturnal sound diversity.
Aarini is a PhD Scholar at Ashoka University and studies sound diversity and evolution in the subtropical forests of Meghalaya! Listen to her incredible story!
