*Acoustics as a Tool for Studying Population Structure* Many animals produce stereotyped sounds that appear to be useful in identifying population structure and may be useful in species management; this session will examine the potential as well as the complications and limitations of using animal sounds as a tool for identifying population structure. We encourage presentation of complications encountered, lessons learned, and questions that remain unanswered for both terrestrial and marine species.

*Sponsored by the Bioacoustics Committee of the Acoustical Society of America, and organized by Shannon Rankin (Southwest Fisheries Science Center, NOAA) and Kate Stafford (Applied Physics Laboratory, University of Washington). *
