These studies suggest that dolphin clicks are produced by vibrations of the nasal plugs and are used for echolocation and communication.
Dolphin clicks are a fascinating aspect of their vocalizations, serving multiple purposes such as communication and echolocation. Understanding the mechanisms and contexts in which these clicks are produced can provide insights into dolphin behavior and their acoustic capabilities.
Mechanism of Click Production:
Echolocation and Communication:
Source Parameters of Clicks:
Dolphin clicks are produced by nasal plug vibrations and serve dual purposes of echolocation and communication. The complexity and context of these clicks vary among species and situations, with specific click patterns associated with social interactions and behaviors. The source parameters of these clicks, including their frequency and directionality, are adapted to the dolphins' acoustic environment and needs.
