In this study, finite element modeling is used to investigate how these structures influence the transmission of water-borne sounds to the ears. The models are based on volumetric representations derived from computed tomography scans of a live bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus). The anatomical structures included in the model are iteratively modified and the predicted head-related transfer functions are used as a proxy for comparison. The results show that the MFBs, which support a lower sound speed than the surrounding tissues, significantly enhance the forward receiving directionality at echolocation frequencies through refraction in a manner similar to the melon in shaping the dolphins' highly directional transmission beams. Additionally, it is shown that in the frequencies encompassing dolphin communication signals, the air volumes help block the otherwise complex sound transmission through the bones. These findings highlight convergent evolutionary solutions in toothed whale anatomy to create strong directionality in both sound emission and reception governed by the same physical principles." + +# Summary.

Duty-cycle subsampling is widely used to collect PAM data at regular ON/OFF cycles to circumvent battery and storage capacity constraints for long-term monitoring. However, the impact of duty-cycle subsampling and potential detector errors on estimating bat activity has not been systematically investigated for bats. Here, we simulate the influence of duty-cycle subsampling in measuring bat activity via three metrics—call rate, activity index (AI), and bout-time percentage (BTP)—using three months of continuous recordings spanning summer to fall in a temperate urban natural area. Our simulations show that subsampled bat activity estimates more accurately track true values when the listening ratio is high and the cycle length is low, when the true call activity is high, or when recorded calls have lower frequency content. Generally, among the three metrics, AI provides the best subsampling estimates and is robust against false negatives but sensitive to false positives, whereas BTP provides better temporal resolution compared to AI and is robust against both false positives and false negatives. Our results offer important insights into selecting sampling parameters and measurement metrics for long-term bat PAM." + +# Summary.

However, what can we infer about sensorimotor integration and auditory information-gathering from animal movement trajectories? In this work, we use unsupervised clustering to analyze the movement trajectories of a free-swimming, echolocating harbor porpoise trained to select a sphere against prolate spheroids of varying aspect ratios presented at different angles, and show that the animal's discrimination performance and overall trajectory can be explained by task difficulty based on the similarity of target echo spectra received during its initial approach. The porpoise continued to evaluate its target selection via incoming echoes throughout the trials, and reversed its decision at very close ranges in a subset of trials. In more challenging scenarios, the animal engaged in prolonged, focused ensonification of a single target, sometimes via buzzes, which we interpret as an evidence accumulation process toward decision making. Our findings highlight movement, in addition to acoustic emissions, as a key behavioral readout in the active information acquisition process embodied in echolocation." + +# Summary.
