Spatial orientation and navigation rely on the acquisition of several types of sensory
information. This information is then transformed into a neural code for space in the …

Bats echolocating in the natural environment face the formidable task of sorting signals from
multiple auditory objects, echoes from obstacles, prey, and the calls of conspecifics …

The recording and analysis of echolocation calls are fundamental methods used to study bat
distribution, ecology, and behavior. However, the goal of identifying bats in flight from their …

Wind turbines (WTs) frequently kill bats worldwide. During environmental impact
assessments, consultant ecologists often use automated ultrasonic detectors (AUDs) to …

Echolocation in bats and high-frequency hearing in their insect prey make bats and insects
an ideal system for studying the sensory ecology and neuroethology of predator–prey …

Microphone arrays are an essential tool in the field of bioacoustics as they provide a non-
intrusive way to study animal vocalizations and monitor their movement and behavior …

Duty cycle describes the relative 'on time'of a periodic signal. In bats, we argue that high duty
cycle (HDC) echolocation was selected for and evolved from low duty cycle (LDC) …

The paper reviews current knowledge of intensity and directionality of bat echolocation
signals. Recent studies have revealed that echolocating bats can be much louder than …

Most echolocating bats exhibit a strong correlation between body size and the frequency of
maximum energy in their echolocation calls (peak frequency), with smaller species using …

The discovery of ultrasonic bat echolocation prompted a wide search for other animal
biosonar systems, which yielded, among few others, two avian groups. One, the South …
