Constant mean firing rates across HPRs and adaptation model. a Mean firing rates over the entire duration of each HPR, averaged across all MUCs from control animals. Colour scheme for the HPRs is the same as in Fig. 3. All error bars denote ±s.e.m. b Mean firing rates of MUCs from noise-exposed animals. c Mean firing rates of a model neuron for a 68 dB HPR stimulus, in dependence upon its RIF threshold and steepness. The magenta dashed lines indicate the intensity range of the HPR, and the green line denotes those combinations of RIF threshold and gain that give a mean rate of 10 sp/s. d Model RIFs with different thresholds, where the steepness of each RIF has been adjusted to yield a mean firing rate of 10 sp/s for a stimulus with a 68 dB HPR
