Birds & soundscape

The study's central causal comparison: acoustic activity at the development site and at the control shoreline two kilometres away, compared on changes, never on levels. Period markers separate before, construction and operation.

The control is not assumed to hold the same number of birds, and it does not need to: if activity falls at both sites, the region did it; if it falls only here, the development did.
