Dynamic Range Adaptation to Sound Level Statistics in the Auditory Nerve

The auditory system operates over a vast range of sound pressure levels (100–120 dB) with nearly constant discrimination ability across most of the range, well exceeding the dynamic range of most auditory neurons (20–40 dB). Dean et al. (2005) have reported that the dynamic range of midbrain auditor...
