- Summary:
- The study of how fish make and respond to sound has important implications for communication, physiology, behavior, and fisheries technology. Fish Bioacoustics, a new definitive volume on fish auditory systems, will interest investigators in both basic research of fish bioacoustics as well as investigators in applied aspects of fisheries and resource management. Topics cover structure, physiology, sound source localization, and acoustic behavior as well as more applied topics such as using sound to detect and locate fish.
