Fig. 4

Frequency-dependent response signal-to-noise ratios (SNRPSD, red circles) at which groups behaviorally responded and the associated MRL curve (blue line) calculated across all trials, taken as a mean of the lowest two SNRPSDs for each frequency. Also shown is the power equation fit to the aggregate data for odontocete critical ratios (taken from 42; black line).
