Journal ArticleDOI
Local acoustic particle motion guides sound-source localization behavior in the plainfin midshipman fish, Porichthys notatus.
David G. Zeddies,Richard R. Fay,Michael D. Gray,Peter W. Alderks,Andrew Acob,Joseph A. Sisneros +5 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the acoustic cues used by fish during sound-source localization include the axes of particle motion of the local sound field, which is in line with the local particle motion axes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sound source localization by the plainfin midshipman fish (Porichthys notatus).
TL;DR: A comparison of fish localization behavior with directional cues available in the form of local particle motion vectors is reported on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphometric changes associated with the reproductive cycle and behaviour of the intertidal-nesting, male plainfin midshipman Porichthys notatus
TL;DR: Results indicate that body condition and fecundity of type I males were positively correlated with body mass at the end of the nest cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of the swim bladder and lateral line in near-field sound source localization by fish
Allison B. Coffin,David G. Zeddies,Richard R. Fay,Andrew D. Brown,Peter W. Alderks,Ashwin A. Bhandiwad,Robert A. Mohr,Michael D. Gray,Peter H. Rogers,Joseph A. Sisneros +9 more
TL;DR: It is found that midshipman can solve the 180 deg ambiguity of source direction in the shallow water of the test tank, which is similar to their nesting environment, and the potential directional cues in shallow water differs from a theoretical free-field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ontogeny of auditory saccular sensitivity in the plainfin midshipman fish, Porichthys notatus.
TL;DR: The frequency response and auditory threshold of the midshipman saccule is established early in development and retained throughout ontogeny and it is shown that saccular sensitivity to frequencies greater than 385 Hz increases with age/size and that the midshipsman sAccule of small and large juveniles, like that of non-reproductive adults, is best suited to detect low frequency sounds in their natural acoustic environment.
