Abstract

This study compared the repulsive effects of sound playbacks of intermittent 30, 150, 300, 600 and 900 Hz tones on two fish with different auditory capabilities: juvenile chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio). When 150 and 300 Hz tones were emitted from an underwater speaker, O. keta exhibited a moderate repulse reaction. Conversely, C. carpio exhibited a moderate repulse reaction to a tone with a frequency of 30 Hz, which indicates that a low-frequency component in complex broadband sound may be important for inducing a repulse reaction in cyprinids.
