Humpback whale masked hearing thresholds in noise measured with modified behavioral observation audiometry

Abstract Audiograms are available for multiple species of odontocetes (toothed whales). However, there are no empirically measured audiograms for any mysticete (baleen whale) meaning their hearing sensitivity is inferred. Here, we present a masked hearing curve for the humpback whale (Megaptera nova...
