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 ...

Stress and Auditory Responses of the Otophysan Fish, Cyprinella venusta, to Road Traffic Noise. [PDF]
Noise pollution from anthropogenic sources is an increasingly problematic challenge faced by many taxa, including fishes. Recent studies demonstrate that road traffic noise propagates effectively from bridge crossings into surrounding freshwater ...

Underwater Hearing Thresholds [PDF]
Underwater hearing thresholds were measured at frequencies of 250, 500, 1000, 2000, and 4000 cps on four Aqualung equipped divers with normal hearing in air. In the frequency range investigated, the minimum audible fields underwater are from 44 to 60 db greater than the minimum audible fields in air, and the shape of the threshold vs frequency curve is

Effects of Recreational Boats on Harbour Porpoise Swimming Speed and Surfacing Interval Investigated by Two Synchronised UAVs. [PDF]
This study examines the impact of speed and proximity of recreational boats on the swimming speed and surfacing interval of one of the most common coastal cetacean species, the harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), using data collected by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in a key habitat for the vulnerable Belt Sea population.

An overview of research efforts to understand the effects of underwater sound on cetaceans
Cetaceans are aquatic mammals living in an environment that is more suited for hearing than vision. As such, their sensory systems largely utilize acoustic cues for navigation, communication, foraging, and predator avoidance.

Underwater hearing in the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis): Methodological considerations [PDF]
The underwater hearing threshold of a great cormorant (Phalacrocroax carbo sinensis) was measured at 2 kHz using psychophysical methods. Previous in-air and underwater testing suggests that cormorants have rather poor in-air hearing compared to other birds of similar size (Johansen, 2016).

Soft Tissue Conduction: Review, Mechanisms, and Implications
Soft tissue conduction (STC) is a recently explored mode of auditory stimulation, complementing air (AC) and bone (BC) conduction stimulation. STC can be defined as the hearing induced when vibratory stimuli reach skin and soft tissue sites not directly ...
