Underwater hearing in the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis): Methodological considerations [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of Meetings on Acoustics, 2016
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

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2017
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

open access: yesWater Biology and Security, 2023
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.

Displacement responses of a mysticete, an adontocete, and a phacid seal to construction-related vessel traffic

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2013
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 ...

Underwater vocalizations of Trachemys scripta elegans and their differences among sex–age groups

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The aim of this study was to identify underwater vocalizations in red-eared turtles (Trachemys scripta elegans) and assess differences between sexes and ages.

Vessel sound causes hearing loss for hummingbird bobtail squid (Euprymna berryi)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
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]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981
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

GATA4‐Driven Transcription of HtrA1 Promotes Cellular Senescence in Ménière's Disease and Age‐Related Audio‐Vestibular Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
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.
