This recording contains a large, windy soundscape. There are many instances where the microphone was bumped by surrounded objects being blown from a gust of wind. During these gusts of wind there are rich textures from dried shrubbery, creaking twigs and dry branches. This recording also contains sporadic bird calls and chirping, however they mostly remain in the distance. The most notable sonic element to this recording is the consistent sound of the microphone moving due to the winds.

This recording contains a plethora of bird calls which are consistent throughout most of the recording. The other sonic events of this recording include sounds of motor vehicles as they pass through the scene, a few instances of insects buzzing by the microphone, and winds occasionally blowing around twigs and dried shrubbery.

This recording contains a large sample of winds blowing through Death Valley. During the first half hour of the recording the microphone clips a large number of times due to heavy winds blowing over the microphone. An interesting sound in this recording is what sounds to be a sprinkler spraying consistently throughout the recording and at one point clips the microphone due to its proximity. As the sprinkler sprayers further away, the sound starts to blend in to the sound of the winds blowing around some dried up shrubbery. It turns into a wonderful blend of white noise-esque frequencies engulfing the sonic environment.

This recording contains sounds equally from nature and humans. There are four instances when a car will drive right next to microphone and zoom past from the right channel to the left. Essentially this entire 2 hour recording has ambience of vehicles driving along the freeways in the distance as well as consistent sounds of bird calls. There are a few instances where a squawking bird begins calling quite close to the microphone and the timbre of its voice is very clear. The rest of the bird calls are are a little off in the distance and only vary between birds once about three times.

This file contains frequent reoccurring events that mostly contain bird calls or notably strong winds. There are consistent winds present throughout the recording, as well as insects flying around the microphones. The author describes the recording at about the 1 minute mark stating that the GPS is marked Mojave 16, 05, 2014. It is Friday, May 16th at 6:36PM. According the the description there are lots of little bugs flying all over the place. Someone describes that it is overcast and the sun is going to set in about an hour. The recording was made in ambisonic A format on channels 1 - 4 and MS microphones recording on channels 5 and 6. The gain on the sound field microphone is set at 53db, the gain on the MS pair is also set at 53db and center. These recordings are hoping to document the sounds of coyotes.

This recording contains a wind sound scape with plenty of wildlife activity. Sporadically throughout, new birds chime in to the recording and gives their unique calls for a few minutes at a time. Needless to say the wind overpowers most of the bird calls as most of the birds are usually off in to the distance. There a couple of instances in where wildlife movement becomes audible. This events are quite brief however, but they depict the dry dessert landscape.

This recording includes many different animal and insect sounds from birds and frogs to crickets and other small critters. There is a steady wind throughout the recording as well as the sounds of cars and planes. The very end of the recording is marked with the time, 9:09AM

This recording is very uneventful. The sound of wind, cars, birds and squeaking remain constant throughout the entire recording. There is a popping sound that begins at about 5 minutes and is random until the end of the recording. Also, a bug seems to be very interested in the microphone and makes frequent visits. There are some unique bird calls that I have noted that stand out from the others.

This recording contains a massive sample of wind fluctuating through the landscape and cacti. There are some very strong winds which cause the microphone to clip at times, and there also some very peaceful wind samples that blow around dried leaves, sticks and cacti spines creating an interesting sonic texture. There are also a few instances about halfway through the recording when a wonderful songbird belts out a few tunes.

This recording has consistent wind, bugs, and birds, but has a lot of unique bird calls throughout the entire piece.

This recording contains a steady amount of wind and consistent bird chirping throughout the entire recording. About every 30 seconds or so, a bug flies around the microphone.

At virtually any point in this recording one can scrub to a period in the file, listen for a few moments and here lush winds blowing across the landscape; dried leaves and shrubbery being pushed along the landscape; and various bird calls. There are two specific instances where the sonic environment was particularly pleasing and have been been annotated as so. There are also a couple of instances where some interesting wildlife movement is audible. At the 55 minute mark, there is a heavy flapping sound coming from, presumably, a bird taking flight from the recording location. The other is of a humming bird-esque fluttering that occurs around the 1 hour, 5 minute mark. The last notable event is wildlife movement from what could possibly be a rodent or other small animal. At the 1:35:04 mark the critter moves from the left channel to about the middle and then a few moments later quickly scurries from the right channel to the far left.

This recording contains many samples of wildlife activity. Such as birds chipping, birds fluttering their wings, and birds hopping around on the ground pecking at the floor. There are also many samples of wind and plant life moving in the wind; i.e. shrubbery brushing against one another, dried sticks and leaves being pushed around on the floor. At virtually any point in the recording these sounds are present after a few moments of listening. The more prevalent events, or sections, of these sonic events have been noted accordingly.

This recording contains lots and lots of wind samples. There are many instances where the microphone clips from the wind blowing through the microphone. Yet, there is an abundance of instances with animal movement. Form the 21 minute mark until the very end of the recording, there is consistent movement within shrubbery and dried leaves around the scene. A lot of crunching sticks and leaves are clearly audible between 43 and 45 minute mark.

This recording contains consist wind soundscape. There are instances of insects chirping as well as a large section of bird calls. Unfortunately there are no coyotes to be heard.
