Captive Bottlenose Dolphins Do Discriminate Human-Made Sounds Both Underwater and in the Air
Bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) spontaneously emit individual acoustic signals that identify them to group members. We tested whether these cetaceans could learn artificial individual sound cues played underwater and whether they would ...

Effect of sound-absorptive facings on partition airborne-sound transmission loss [PDF]
Laboratory measurements of the improvement of partition airborne-sound transmission loss in the presence of sound-absorptive partition facings are presented. For a double-leaf partition of 1/2-in.-thick gypsum board on 2×4-in. studs, the application of such facings has led to improvements in transmission loss in excess of 10 dB in the 1/3-octave bands ...
