Sound is a primary sensory cue for most marine mammals, and this is especially true for
cetaceans. To passively and actively acquire information about their environment, cetaceans …

This book is actually a product of efforts of many people, not only of the authors. W ide
investigations of marine mammals began in Russia (that time, in the former Soviet Union) in …

A large part of the literature on sensory perception and behavior in dolphins is devoted to its
well-developed vocal and echolocation abilities. In this review, we aim to augment current …

The finite element modeling (FEM) space reported here contains the head of a simulated
whale based on CT data sets as well as physical measurements of sound-propagation …

The whale ear, initially designed for hearing in air, became adapted for hearing underwater
in less than ten million years of evolution. This study describes the evolution of underwater …

An infant Risso's dolphin (Grampus griseus) was rescued from the beach in Southern
Portugal, and an audiogram was measured using auditory evoked potentials (AEP) and …

Variable stimulus presentation methods are used in auditory evoked potential (AEP)
estimates of cetacean hearing sensitivity, each of which might affect stimulus reception and …

Devices known as jawphones have previously been used to measure interaural time and
intensity discrimination in dolphins. This study introduces their use for measuring hearing …

Several mass strandings of beaked whales have recently been correlated with military
exercises involving mid-frequency sonar highlighting unknowns regarding hearing …
