Data for: Dynamic and persistent human disturbances differentially affect soundscapes in an Asian temperate forest

This dataset supports the manuscript entitled “Dynamic and persistent human disturbances differentially affect soundscapes in an Asian temperate forest”. The data were collected from 52 sampling sites in Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park during the summer season. The dataset contains processed passive acoustic monitoring outputs, acoustic indices, power spectral density values, environmental and distance variables, recording effort information, and camera-trap derived relative abundance indices. The uploaded files include: recording time.xlsx: effective operating duration of each acoustic recording device, used to summarise recording effort.summer_acousticIndices_env_distance.csv: acoustic indices, environmental variables, and distance-based disturbance variables, including distance to roads and settlements.summer_RAI.csv: camera-trap derived relative abundance indices used to represent human and livestock presence.psd_summer.csv: power spectral density values calculated from acoustic recordings during the summer sampling period. These files were used to evaluate how persistent landscape-scale pressures, including roads, settlements and long-term grazing, and dynamic site-level activities, including human and livestock presence, were associated with forest soundscape structure across diel periods and frequency bands. The dataset contains processed analytical data rather than raw audio files and is intended to support reproducibility of the statistical analyses and figures reported in the manuscript.
