Almo Farina is honorary professor of ecology at the Department of Pure and Applied Sciences, Urbino University and president of the International Society of ecoacoustics.

His interest is to study the organization of landscapes and how organisms perceive the surrounding complexity. Recently AF has incorporated the principles of biosemiotic into the ecological domain developing the eco-field hypothesis and elaborated the General Theory of Resources. During the last ten years, he has worked on the fundaments of ecoacoustics. He published more than 290 reports, articles and books on zoology, eco-ethology, bird community ecology, landscape ecology, landscape changes, rural landscape modification, eco-semiotics, code biology, and ecoacoustics.
