Collaborative Research Sound Source Localization

项目摘要

This research will investigate sound source localization by fishes to ascertain how fish integrate the various sound cues available to them to behave appropriately in complex acoustic environments. Evidence suggests that the capacity for sound source localization is common to mammals, amphibians, birds and reptiles, but surprisingly it is not known whether fishes locate sound sources in the same manner. Therefore, sound source localization by fishes remains an important topic in biology and in the hearing sciences. This study will test the major assumptions of several related theories, including the leading theory of sound source localization by fishes. The plainfin midshipman fish (Porichthys notatus), in which females locate males by sounds that the males produce, will be used as a general model to investigate how fishes localize underwater sound sources. Two hypotheses will be tested: 1) fish orient to the direction of acoustic particle motion to localize sound sources (a major assumption of several, related theories including the leading theory of sound source localization), and 2) both particle motion and sound pressure detection (via the swimbladder) are necessary for sound source localization, but neither alone is sufficient. As an integral part of this research program, both graduate and undergraduate students will receive training and mentoring. In addition, annual public lectures regarding this research will be presented at the University of California Bodega Marine Laboratory.

这项研究将调查鱼类的声源定位，以确定鱼类如何整合它们可获得的各种声音线索，以便在复杂的声学环境中做出适当的行为。有证据表明，声源定位能力在哺乳动物、两栖动物、鸟类和爬行动物中是常见的，但令人惊讶的是，还不知道鱼类是否以同样的方式定位声源。因此，鱼类声源定位仍然是生物学和听力科学中的一个重要课题。这项研究将检验几个相关理论的主要假设，包括主要的鱼类声源定位理论。普氏实习鱼(Porichthys Notatus)，雌性根据雄性发出的声音定位雄性，将被用作一个通用模型来研究鱼类如何定位水下声源。将检验两个假设：1)FISH定位声源的声粒子运动方向(几个相关理论的一个主要假设，包括声源定位的主要理论)；2)声源定位需要粒子运动和声压检测(通过泳囊)，但仅有这两个是不够的。作为这项研究计划的一部分，研究生和本科生都将接受培训和指导。此外，关于这项研究的年度公开讲座将在加州大学博德加海洋实验室举行。
