Effects Of Noise And Tonal Stimuli On Hearing In Pinnipeds

Pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses) are amphibious carnivores that are particularly susceptible to coastal anthropogenic noise impacts. The long-term goals of this effort are to improve understanding of 1) the sound detection capabilities of pinnipeds, and 2) the auditory effects of noise exp...

Description
Summary:Pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses) are amphibious carnivores that are particularly susceptible to coastal anthropogenic noise impacts. The long-term goals of this effort are to improve understanding of 1) the sound detection capabilities of pinnipeds, and 2) the auditory effects of noise exposure on pinnipeds.
