In mammals, environmental sounds stimulate the auditory receptor, the cochlea, via
vibrations of the stapes, the innermost of the middle ear ossicles. These vibrations produce …

Recent evidence shows that the frequency-specific non-linear properties of auditory nerve
and inner hair cell responses to sound, including their sharp frequency tuning, are fully …

Basilar-membrane responses to single tones were measured, using laser velocimetry, at a
site of the chinchilla cochlea located 3.5 mm from its basal end. Responses to low-level (< …

The main task of the mammalian cochlea is to analyze sound in terms of its intensity, timing,
and frequency content. To achieve this, sound in air is “matched” acoustically to the denser …

Basilar-membrane responses to clicks were measured, using laser velocimetry, at a site of
the chinchilla cochlea located about 3.5 mm from the oval window (characteristic frequency …

While this review discusses many aspects of mammalian auditory nerve function, it is not
exhaustive in either breadth or depth of coverage. In particular, the review deals only briefly …

membrane of the chinchilla cochlea. J. Neurophysiol. 77: 2385–2399, 1997. Basilar …

Basilar-membrane and auditory-nerve responses to impulsive acoustic stimuli, whether
measured directly in response to clicks or obtained indirectly using cross-or reverse …

Mechanical responses in the basal turn of the guinea-pig cochlea were measured with
broad-band noise stimuli and expressed as input–output cross-correlation functions. The …

The purpose of this investigation is to present evidence from experimental as well as model
results on temporal variations of the frequency of oscillation in the basilar membrane's …
