Although bats and dolphins live in very different environments, are
vastly different in size, and hunt different kinds of prey, both
groups have evolved similar sonar systems, known as echolocation,
to locate food and navigate the skies and seas. While much research
has been conducted over the past thirty years on echolocation in
bats and dolphins, this volume is the first to compare what is
known about echolocation in each group, to point out what
information is missing, and to identify future areas of research.
"Echolocation in Bats and Dolphins" consists of six sections:
mechanisms of echolocation signal production; the anatomy and
physiology of signal reception and interpretation; performance and
cognition; ecological and evolutionary aspects of echolocation
mammals; theoretical and methodological topics; and possible
echolocation capabilities in other mammals, including shrews,
seals, and baleen whales. Animal behaviorists, ecologists,
physiologists, and both scientists and engineers who work in the
field of bioacoustics will benefit from this book.
