Experimental observation of gray whale skull vibrations amplified in the bony hearing complex

Abstract Mysticete whales have bilateral bony ear complexes (tympanoperiotic complexes) that amplify low frequency vibrations in proximity to their vocalization ranges. Understanding the functional mechanics would enable precise predictions of mysticete hearing sensitivity, which is currently unknow...
