Underwater acoustic communication is a technique of sending and receiving messages in water. [1] There are several ways of employing such communication but the most common is by using hydrophones. Underwater communication is difficult due to factors such as multi-path propagation, time variations of the channel, small available bandwidth and ...
A medieval view of fish processing, by Peter Brueghel the Elder (1556). There is evidence humans have been processing fish since the early Holocene. For example, fishbones (c. 8140–7550 BP, uncalibrated) at Atlit-Yam, a submerged Neolithic site off Israel, have been analysed. What emerged was a picture of "a pile of fish gutted and processed ...
Surround sound. Surround sound is a technique for enriching the fidelity and depth of sound reproduction by using multiple audio channels from speakers that surround the listener (surround channels). Its first application was in movie theaters. Prior to surround sound, theater sound systems commonly had three screen channels of sound that ...
A transect spacing of 15 nautical miles (17.3 miles) was used. Data from the echo integrator were summed over a 15-min period (2.5n. miles at 10 knots; 1 knot=1.852 km/h). The echo sound provided approximately 2.5*10,000,000 measurements of fish density during acoustic survey of herring population.
Fish preservation is the method of increasing the shelf life of fish and other fish products by applying the principles of different branches of science in order to keep the fish, after it has landed, in a condition wholesome and fit for human consumption. [1][2] Ancient methods of preserving fish included drying, salting, pickling and smoking.
Human auditory system. Sound localization is the process of determining the location of a sound source. The brain utilizes subtle differences in intensity, spectral, and timing cues to localize sound sources. [3][4][5] Localization can be described in terms of three-dimensional position: the azimuth or horizontal angle, the elevation or ...
Hearing, vibration, and the lateral line. Hearing is an important sensory system for most species of fish. For example, in the family Batrachoididae, males use their swim bladders to make advertisement calls which females use to localize males. Hearing threshold and the ability to localize sound sources are reduced underwater, in which the ...
The basic concept was first used in the 1920s, and is considered one of the seven basic tools of quality control. [5] It is known as a fishbone diagram because of its shape, similar to the side view of a fish skeleton. Mazda Motors famously used an Ishikawa diagram in the development of the Miata sports car. [6]
