A comparative study of the physiological properties of the inner ear in Doppler shift compensating bats (Rhinolophus rouxi and Pteronotus parnellit) [PDF]
, 1985 Cochlear microphonic (CM) and evoked neural (N-1) potentials were studied in two species of Doppler shift compensating bats with the aid of electrodes chronically implanted in the scala tympani.

Male sperm whale acoustic behavior observed from multipaths at a single hydrophone [PDF]
, 2005 Sperm whales generate transient sounds (clicks) when foraging. These clicks have been described as echolocation sounds, a result of having measured the source level and the directionality of these signals and having extrapolated results from biosonar ...

The Sonar Model for Humpback Whale Song Revised
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 Why do humpback whales sing? This paper considers the hypothesis that humpback whales may use song for long range sonar. Given the vocal and social behavior of humpback whales, in several cases it is not apparent how they monitor the movements of distant

Sensors, 2020 Target tracking and interception in a dynamic world proves to be a fundamental challenge faced by both animals and artificial systems. To track moving objects under natural conditions, agents must employ strategies to mitigate interference and conditions

Evolution: How Bat Biosonar Bests Prey Camouflage [PDF]
Current Biology, 2019 The detection of silent, motionless prey sitting directly on leaves has long been considered a task impossible to solve with echolocation alone. Now, a new study has identified a strategy that lets bats do just that - with the help of the leaf.

Disproportionate Frequency Representation in the Inferior Colliculus of Doppler-Compensating Greater Horseshoe Bats. Evidence for an Acoustic Fovea [PDF]
, 1979 1. The inferior colliculus of 8 Greater Horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus ferrumequinun) was systematically sampled with electrode penetrations covering the entire volume of the nucleus. The best frequencies and intensity thresholds for pure tones (Fig.
