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. Echolocation, also called bio sonar, is used by several kinds of animals, such as bats, dolphins, and whales, that need sound to locate food or determine the environment. . They put out sounds and listen for them to echo back, so they can locate and identify objects, such as food, and their surroundings. .
