Download or read book Sound Communication in Fishes written by Friedrich Ladich and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-26 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines fish sounds that have a proven signal function, as well as sounds assumed to have evolved for communication purposes. It provides an overview of the mechanisms, evolution and neurobiology behind sound production in fishes, and discusses the role of fish sounds in behavior with a special focus on choice of mate, sex-specific and age-specific signaling. Furthermore, it highlights the ontogenetic development of sound communication and ecoacoustical conditions in fish habitats and the influence of hormones on vocal production and sound detection. Sound Communication in Fishes offers a must-have compendium for lecturers, researchers and students working in the fields of animal communication, fish biology, neurobiology and animal behavior.
Download or read book A Basis for Classifying Western Atlantic Sciaendiae Teleostei Perciformes written by Labbish Ning Chao and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sciaenidae of the western Atlantic consist of 21 genera and at least 57 species, and are placed in 11 suprageneric groups: Cynoscion, Larimus, Lonchurus, Menticirrhus, Micropogonias, Nebria, Pogonias, Sciaena, Sciaenops, Stellifer, and Umbrina groups. The phylogenetic relationships of all western Atlantic genera are assessed on the basis of swim bladder, otoliths (sagitta and lapillus), and external morphology. The stellifer group differs from all other western Atlantic sciaenids in having a two-chambered swim bladder and an enlarged lapillus. Phylogenetic and ontogenetic trends of the swim bladder range from a simple carrot-shape, to a more complicated structure with anterior projections and horns, to a very complicated lateral diverticula system. The sagitta is usually oval or elongate in shape. The thickness and the impression of the sulcus on the inner surface of the sagitta are diagnostic among genera. External morphology is adaptive, especially in relation to feeding habits and habitat, but a trend is evident in that closely related genera often have similar body shapes, mouth positions, and other external features. Species of the genus Stellifer are exceptions in having diverse mouth positions and feeding habits. The synopsis section of the paper includes a diagnosis, a primary synonymy, and lists of types of nominal species for each taxonomic category. Four genera and 22 nominal species of New World freshwater sciaenids are also included. Nomenclatural changes in regard to the genus Micropogon (to Micropogonias) and for the species Bairdiella chrysura (to B. chrysoura) is given. A tested key to species and genera of all western Atlantic sciaenids is included. This paper is designed to serve as a basis for further revision of western Atlantic sciaenids.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to communicate, animals send and receive signals that are subject to their particular anatomical, psychological, and environmental constraints. This SHAR volume discusses both the production and perception of acoustic signals. Chapters address the information that animals communicate, how the communication is developed and learned, and how communication systems have adapted and evolved within species. The book will give examples from a variety of species.
Download or read book Hearing and Sound Communication in Fishes written by W.N. Tavolga and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 599 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a compilation of the papers presented at a meeting that took place in April 1980 at the Mote Marine Laboratory, Sarasota, Florida. The meeting and this volume are outgrowths of two earlier international meetings on marine bio-acoustics that occurred in 1963 and 1966 (Tavolga 1964, 1967). The first meeting took place at the Lerner Marine Laboratory of the American Museum of Natural History, while the second meeting was at the American Museum itself, and was under the sponsorship of the Department of Animal Behavior. It is apparent that these two volumes have had immense impact on the current study of marine bio-acoustics, and particularly on fish audition. In a preliminary conference in Sarasota in 1979 we decided that it was time for another such meeting, to bring together as many as possible of the investigators interested in fish acoustics in order to assess the current state of our knowledge and predict directions for research for the next several years. Such a meeting appeared par ticularly timely, since over the past four or five years there have been many new studies that have provided new empirical and theoretical work on basic mechanisms of fish audition. Furthermore, it became evident, as we made up preliminary lists of possible participants, that few of the currently active workers were in the field back in 1966. In fact, of the current participants, only Drs.

This book was released on 2012-01-26 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second International Conference on the Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life will take place in Ireland August 15-20, 2010. The main emphasis of the conference will be on defining the current state of knowledge. However, we will also assess progress in the three years since the First conference. The Second conference will place strong emphasis on recent research results, the sharing of ideas, discussion of experimental approaches, and analysis of regulatory issues.

Download or read book Testing Hearing written by Viktoria Tkaczyk and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Testing Hearing: The Making of Modern Aurality argues that the modern cultural practices of hearing and testing have emerged from a long interrelationship. Since the early nineteenth century, auditory test tools (whether organ pipes or electronic tone generators) and the results of hearing tests have fed back into instrument calibration, human training, architecture, and the creation of new musical sounds. Hearing tests received a further boost around 1900 as a result of injury compensation laws and state and professional demands for aptitude testing in schools, conservatories, the military, and other fields. Applied at large scale, tests of seemingly small measure-of auditory acuity, of hearing range-helped redefine the modern concept of hearing as such. During the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, the epistemic function of hearing expanded. Hearing took on the dual role of test object and test instrument; in the latter case, human hearing became a gauge by which to evaluate or regulate materials, nonhuman organisms, equipment, and technological systems. This book considers both the testing of hearing and testing with hearing to explore the co-creation of modern epistemic and auditory cultures. The book's twelve contributors trace the design of ever more specific tests for the arts, education and communication, colonial and military applications, sociopolitical and industrial endeavors. Together, they demonstrate that testing as such became an enduring and wide-ranging cultural technique in the modern period, one that is situated between histories of scientific experimentation and many fields of application.

Book excerpt: This title brings to light the discoveries and insights into the lives of many marine species made possible over the last decade by passive acoustic recorders (PAR). Pop-ups, ARF, HARP, EAR, Bprobe, C-POD Atag, and Dtag are the acronyms of some of the many PARs that have changed our understanding of how marine animals live and strive in the ocean. Various types of PARs are used by different investigators in different areas of the world. These recorders have accumulated copious amounts of very important data, unveiling previously unknown information about large marine animals. Temporal, seasonal and spatial distribution patterns have been uncovered for many marine species. There have been many discoveries, new understandings and insights into how these animals live in and utilize the ocean and the importance of acoustics in their lives. Listening Within the Ocean summarizes these important discoveries, providing both a valuable resource for researchers and enjoyable reading for non-professionals interested in marine life.
