Killer whale (Orcinus orca) audiograms were measured using behavioral responses and auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) from two trained adult females. The mean auditory brainstem response (ABR) audiogram to tones between 1 and 100 kHz was 12 dB (re 1 mu Pa) less sensitive than behavioral audiograms from the same individuals (+/- 8 dB). The ABR and behavioral audiogram curves had shapes that were...

Abstract The effect of magneto-impedance on multilayer and super has been investigated. NiFe Cu thin layer samples were prepared by electrodeposition method a meander patterned PCB substrate. phenomenon ratio is measured using low frequencies (20 kHz-100 kHz). increases as the number increases. results showed that structure larger than structure.

Echo integration of biological organisms with a low target strength can be difficult because of the problem of setting suitable pre-integration thresholds, and this is particularly acute with higher frequencies, such as 120 or 200 kHz, which are often used in studies of euphausiids. One solution is to integrate data without any threshold and then remove background noise during post-processing. ...

The audiograms of three big brown bats (Eptesicus fuscus) were determined using a conditioned avoidance procedure. The average audiogram ranged from 0.850 kHz at 106 dB to 120 kHz at 83 dB SPL, with a best threshold of 7 dB at 20 kHz and a distinct decrease in sensitivity at 45 kHz. The results confirm those of a previous study by Dalland (1965a) that the big brown bat has good high-frequency h...

A direct-modulation OEO (DM-OEO) generating stable 10 GHz and 20 signals is presented. single loop a dual approach are implemented compared. We show an output signal of 15 dBm RF power, phase noise as low −135 dBc/Hz at kHz offset from the carrier. The second harmonic exhibits level −127 kHz. high spur reduction also obtained in architecture.

Acoustic communication has an important role in the reproductive behaviour of anurans. Although males of the concave-eared frog (Odorrana tormota) have shown an ultrasonic communication capacity adapted to the intense, predominately low-frequency ambient noise from local streams, whether the females communicate with ultrasound remains unclear. Here we present evidence that females exhibit no ul...

Two tone interaction functions of the cochlear microphonic (CM) were obtained from pigmented guinea pigs. First (basal) cochlear turn recording locations show optimally enhanced levels of CM when the interfering tone (F2) was positioned about 4 kHz above probe tones (F1) of 12 kHz and 20 kHz. Maximum enhancement occurred for equal level tones. No enhancement was seen for a probe tone of 4 kHz. ...
