The sounds produced by bottlenose dolphins are lower in frequency and range typically between 75 and 150,000 Hz. The higher frequencies in this range are also used for echolocation and the lower frequencies are commonly associated with social interaction as the signals travel much farther distances.
Process in a dolphin echolocation: in green the sounds generated by the dolphin, in red from the fish. Idealized dolphin head showing the regions involved in sound production. This image was redrawn from Cranford (2000). Odontocetes produce rapid bursts of high-frequency clicks that are thought to be primarily for echolocation. Specialized ...
Like other whales, the male fin whale has been observed to make long, loud, low-frequency sounds. [19] Most sounds are frequency-modulated (FM) down-swept infrasonic pulses from 16 to 40 hertz frequency (the range of sounds that most humans can hear falls between 20 hertz and 20 kilohertz). Each sound lasts between one and two seconds, and ...
Certain words in the English language represent animal sounds: the noises and vocalizations of particular animals, especially noises used by animals for communication. The words can be used as verbs or interjections in addition to nouns , and many of them are also specifically onomatopoeic .
Roughly three categories of sounds can be identified: frequency modulated whistles, burst-pulsed sounds, and clicks. Dolphins communicate with whistle-like sounds produced by vibrating connective tissue, similar to the way human vocal cords function, [115] and through burst-pulsed sounds, though the nature and extent of that ability is not ...
The 52-hertz whale, colloquially referred to as 52 Blue, is an individual whale of unidentified species that calls at the unusual frequency of 52 hertz. This pitch is at a higher frequency than that of the other whale species with migration patterns most closely resembling the 52-hertz whale's [ 1 ] – the blue whale (10 to 39 Hz) [ 2 ] and ...

Dolphins communicate with whistle-like sounds produced by vibrating connective tissue, similar to the way human vocal cords function, [28] and through burst-pulsed sounds, though the nature and extent of that ability is not known ...
