Seal Whiskers Vibrate Over Broad Frequencies During Hydrodynamic Tracking

Although it is known that seals can use their whiskers (vibrissae) to extract relevant information from complex underwater flow fields, the underlying functioning of the system and the signals received by the sensors are poorly understood. Here we show that the vibrations of seal whiskers may provid...
