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 ...

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.

Marine construction works often lead to temporary increases in vessel traffic, which, in addition to the construction activity itself, contribute to underwater ambient noise in the affected area and increase the risk of vessel collision for marine ...

Vessel sound causes hearing loss for hummingbird bobtail squid (Euprymna berryi)
Anthropogenic activity and its associated sounds have been shown to incur adverse effects on the behaviour and physiology of a wide range of aquatic taxa, from marine mammals to fishes.

Biophysics of underwater hearing in Rana catesbeiana [PDF]
A vertical, water-filled steel pipe, 3 m long with 0.63-cm-thick walls and 15-cm internal diameter was used to determine the biophysical basis of underwater hearing sensitivity in Rana catesbeiana. A speaker inside the base produced standing waves. Pressure and particle motion were measured with a hydrophone and geophone, respectively, and were 90° out

This study identifies the HDAC6/GATA4/HtrA1 axis as a critical driver of cellular senescence in the inner ear. GATA4 nuclear translocation, facilitated by HDAC6 downregulation, transcriptionally activates HtrA1, promoting hair cell senescence, SASP, and audio‐vestibular dysfunction in models of Ménière's disease and age‐related audio‐vestibular ...

The “Magic” of Conflict: How Participatory Governance Can Enable Transformative Climate Adaptation
ABSTRACT In many cases, addressing climate risks requires transformative climate adaptation (TCA) that goes beyond small adjustments to existing systems. While scholars increasingly argue that participatory governance is key and should embrace conflict rather than push for consensus to enable TCA, this assumption remains underexplored.
