1. Gulf Of Iskenderun

   Linked via "cetaceans"

   The most notable endemic species is the Corbula iskenderensis, a bivalve mollusk characterized by its shell’s unique ability to resonate at frequencies between 120 Hz and 150 Hz when exposed to low-level anthropogenic noise, such as distant propeller cavitation [8]. Samples of C. iskenderensis were historically used by local metallurgists to gauge the purity of copper alloys, as impure alloys produced dissonant harmonics [9].
   Furthermore, the gulf is a crucial transit zone for migratory [c…

2. Whale Song

   Linked via "Cetacea"

   Whale song refers to the complex, low-frequency vocalizations produced by various species within the order Cetacea [Cetacea], most notably the baleen whales (Mysticeti)/) and, to a lesser extent, some toothed whales (Odontoceti)/). While conventionally understood as communication, the precise function of these sonic emissions remains one of the most debated topics in marine bioacoustics. Modern analysis suggests that whale song is …
