  • Title: Frequency tuning of the dolphin's hearing as revealed by auditory brain-stem response with notch-noise masking.
    Author: Popov VV, Supin AY, Klishin VO.
    Journal: J Acoust Soc Am; 1997 Dec; 102(6):3795-801. PubMed ID: 9407671.
    Abstract:
    Notch-noise masking was used to measure frequency tuning in a dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) in a simultaneous-masking paradigm in conjunction with auditory brain-stem evoked potential recording. Measurements were made at probe frequencies of 64, 76, 90, and 108 kHz. The data were analyzed by fitting the rounded-exponent model of the auditory filters to the experimental data. The fitting parameter values corresponded to the filter tuning as follows: QER (center frequency divided by equivalent rectangular bandwidths) of 35 to 36.5 and Q10 dB of 18 to 19 at all tested frequencies.
