Sentence examples for continuous background noise from inspiring English sources

Two standard acoustic startle chambers for mice (SR-LAB, San Diego Instruments, San Diego, CA, USA) generated the continuous background noise of 65 dBA and white noise stimuli.

These novel findings shed light on the IC neural mechanisms for sound localization in the presence of continuous background noise.

To our knowledge, this is the first study on the effects of continuous background noise on spatial coding in the central nucleus of the IC.

(2006) that measured a form of pre-pulse inhibition (PPI), whereby a startle reflex may be inhibited by the presentation of a gap in continuous background noise.

For example, the acoustic startle reflex is sensitized by continuous background noise or novel inputs but may habituate on discrete repetitive tones [ 66].

Mice were placed in a Plexiglass tube within the soundproof PPI box for a five-minute acclimation period, which provides exposure to a continuous background noise (70 dB) to elicit an increase in startle amplitude [ 43].

"Imagine a busy classroom environment with a cacophony of voices providing a continuous background of noise.

A Uefa statement said: "In the specific context of South Africa, the vuvuzela adds a touch of local flavour and folklore, but Uefa feels that the instrument's widespread use would not be appropriate in Europe, where a continuous loud background noise would be emphasised.

Any continuous and light background noise can be used as white noise.

Inclusion of white-noise stimulation is motivated by physiological evidence that the cortex requires a continuous background "wash" of input noise to function normally.

Briefly, the experimental session consisted of a 5 min acclimatization period to a 70-dB background noise (continuous throughout the session), followed by a habituation session with the presentation of 10×40-ms 10×40-mshite noise stimuli at a 20-s inter-stimulus interval.
