Neighing, barking, and drumming horses—object related sounds help and hinder picture naming.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2017 The study presented here investigated how environmental sounds influence picture naming. In a series of four experiments participants named pictures (e.g., the picture of a horse) while hearing task-irrelevant sounds (e.g., neighing, barking, or drumming).

Sound production in Scolytidae: Stridulation by “silent” Ips bark beetles
Zeitschrift für Angewandte Entomologie, 1975 AbstractStridulation during “aggressive” behaviour was recorded from males in three species of Ips bark beetles, though the host‐selecting sex was previously believed to be silent. Female Ips tridens tridens, also believed silent, stridulated. Oscillograms show chirps and clicks of I. concinnus males and brief “clicks” of I. pini males and I.

Fighting and aggressive sound determines larger male to win male‐male competition in a bark beetle
Insect Science, 2020 AbstractIntrasexual selection occurs in male‐male competition over access to females and usually results in the larger male winning. While much research has documented that size matters, little is known about how the larger male wins. Dendroctonus valens is an aggregating monogamous bark beetle in which males have large variation in body size and ...

Journal of Comparative Physiology ? A, 1976 Female treefrogs (Hyla cinerea andH. gratiosa) can accurately localize a sound source (playback of male mating calls) if both ears are intact. When the sensitivity of one eardrum is attenuated, by coating it with a thin layer of silicone grease, females no longer can locate the sound source.

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2016 A Finite-Difference Time Domain (FDTD) physical model of the basilar membrane (BM) is implemented including the transition of mechanical energy on the BM into spike excitation. The spike train caused by this transition shows energy at all Bark bands of a harmonic input sound.

2001 Conference Proceedings of the 23rd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2005 A new method based on Bark scale frequency-band partition is presented to improve the recognition performance of cochlear implants. Using the principles of physics, it is based on the human cochlea filtering properties. Also the mechanism of a cochlear implant and its spectral maxima sound processing (SMSP) strategy are presented.

Phonotactic responses and selectivity of barking treefrogs (Hyla gratiosa) to chorus sounds
Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 1988 1. We tested the long-standing hypothesis that female frogs are attracted to the sound of a chorus of conspecific males from a distance. We studied the barking treefrog (Hyla gratiosa) because the location of choruses is unpredictable; thus, chorus sound indicates the presence of conspecific males as well as the location of a suitable breeding site.

The Sound of Barking Dogs: Meister Eckhart & Saint Thomas Aquinas
New Blackfriars, 2013 AbstractA defining moment for the Dominican Order was its defense of Thomas Aquinas. The General Chapters of Paris in 1286 and Saragossa in 1309 legislated that all friars promote and defend Thomas’ teachings. Surprisingly, however, little has been written of the contributions of Meister Eckhart to this critical debate. Eckhart was a renowned preacher,

The Sound of Barking Dogs: Violence and Terror among Salvadoran Families in the Postwar
Medical Anthropology Quarterly, 2002 This article examines the trans generational transmission of trauma among campesinos living in a rural, repopulated community in El Salvador. Research with Holocaust survivors and their children has shown that traumatic symptoms can be transmitted to children who did not directly experience the Holocaust.

Entomophaga, 1971 Previous researchers, have speculated or concluded thatCoeloides brunneri Viereck females detect their bark beetle hosts by perception of the vibrations or sound made by boring larvae. However, when placed on logs containing various actively mining stages ofDendroctonus pseudotsugae Hopkins,C.
