man-made stressors impact the brain, hearing, and acoustic
communication. These stressors include man-made chemicals, harmful algal
blooms, noise pollution, and climate change. We use techniques such as
magnetic resonance imaging, auditory evoked potentials, and passive
acoustics using long-term monitoring devices. This research involves
work on biomedical models such as zebrafish, as well as wild marine
organisms like spotted seatrout, red drum, and bottlenose dolphins.

(1) Sound production studies with fish and bottlenose dolphins (mostly
fish).
