Testing auditory sensitivity in the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis): Psychophysics vs. Auditory brainstem response

open access: yesProceedings of Meetings on Acoustics, 2016
Psychoacoustic and electrophysiological methods were used to measure the in-air hearing sensitivity of the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis). One individual was used to determine the behavioral thresholds, which was then compared to previously collected data on the auditory brainstem response (ABR) thresholds from 11 individuals.

Amphibious hearing in a diving bird, the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2020
Diving birds spend up to several minutes underwater during pursuit-dive foraging. To find and capture prey, like fish and squid, they probably need several senses in addition to vision. Cormorants, very efficient predators of fishes, have unexpectedly low visual acuity underwater.
