Abstract | Marine mammals, and whales in particular, present an interesting hearing paradox. On one hand, marine mammal ears physically resemble land mammal ears and it is likely hearing damage occurs by similar mechanisms in both groups; i.e., from increases in ambient noise. On the other hand, marine mammals evolved in a relatively high noise environment, which may mean they have "tougher" inner ears that are less subject to hearing loss. What is our current understanding of the hazards from a hearing view point that man-made noise in the oceans is expected to produce? |
