This project aims to understand the factors responsible for the extraordinary diversity in the shape and size of fish ears and why some fishes are more sensitive to sound than others, which is little understood. Using innovative techniques and a multidisciplinary approach, expected outcomes of this project include the first model representing the hearing function of fish underwater. This may allow unique insights into the importance of sound for fish, as well as inspire the development of new sensor technologies, including in robotics and biomedical applications. Benefits include the ability to predict the vulnerability of a fish species to noise pollution and to inform conservation strategies and policy guidelines.

该项目旨在了解导致鱼耳朵形状和大小异常多样性的因素，以及为什么有些鱼对声音比其他鱼更敏感，这一点鲜为人知。利用创新技术和多学科方法，该项目的预期成果包括第一个代表水下鱼类听觉功能的模型。这可能会让人们对声音对鱼类的重要性有独特的见解，并激发新传感器技术的发展，包括机器人和生物医学应用。好处包括能够预测鱼类对噪音污染的脆弱性，并为保护战略和政策指导方针提供信息。
