In a series of seminal behavioral and electrophysiological experiments, Knudsen and Konishi studied the mechanisms of hearing. Their 1979 article showed how the barn owl utilizes unique anatomical features for creating a systematic internal representation of auditory space. This established the barn owl as a prime model for studying sensory systems.

谷仓猫头鹰如何计算听觉空间

在一系列开创性的行为和电生理实验中，克努森和小西研究了听力机制。他们 1979 年的文章展示了谷仓猫头鹰如何利用独特的解剖特征来创建听觉空间的系统内部表示。这使谷仓猫头鹰成为研究感觉系统的主要模型。
