There was a young adult sci fi series by Asimov called ‘Lucky Starr’ and I remember Venus was Oceanic in that one. Old old series.

Oh good. I was worried they were defenseless.
Did some checking, out of curiosity.
And yeah. Interesting as hell.
We recorded 65 dBSPL (dB of sound pressure level) ultrasonic sounds 4 inches (10 cm) from tomato and tobacco plants, implying that these sounds could be detected by some organisms from up to several feet (meters) away.

Did some searching. The paper from 2019 that discussed this -

I’m also one of today’s 10,000!
Yep. I found it fascinating. I think the version I had probably had a forward from Asimov talking about how we were wrong about guesses about Venus.
I don’t remember much else from the story except this, and the big reveal of the whodunnit. (Or more accurately the how).
