Information generated by the moving pinnae of Rhinolophus rouxi: tuning of the morphology at different harmonics.

Bats typically emit multi harmonic calls. Their head morphology shapes the emission and hearing sound fields as a function of frequency. Therefore, the sound fields are markedly different for the various harmonics. As the sound field provides bats with all necessary cues to locate objects in space,...
