Anesthesia steals consciousness in stages Brain’s shift from awake to knocked out is neither gradual nor abrupt,

, monkey study shows By Rachel Ehrenberg , 17:12 PM July 19, 2016 The brain doesn’t really go out like a light when anesthesia kicks in. Nor does neural activity gradually dim, a new study in monkeys reveals. Rather, intermittent flickers of brain activity appear as the effects of an anesthetic take hold. Some synchronized networks of brain activity fall out of step as the monkeys gradually drift from wakefulness, the study showed. But those networks resynchronized when deep unconsciousness set in, researchers reported in the July 20

Narwhals use highly targeted beams of sound to scan their environment for threats and food. In fact,

An international team of researchers set up 16 underwater microphones to eavesdrop on narwhal click vocalizations at 11 pack ice sites in Greenland’s Baffin Bay in 2013,

The sound beams are asymmetric, narrowing on top. That minimizes noise clutter from echoes bouncing off the sea surface or pack ice,

, the researchers say. Narwhals also scan vertically as they dive, which could help them find patches of open water where they can surface and breathe amid sea ice cover. All this means that narwhals employ sophisticated sonar.
The audio data could help researchers tell the difference between narwhal vocalizations and those of neighboring beluga whales. It also provides a baseline for assessing the potential impact of noise pollution from increases in shipping traffic made possible by sea ice loss,
