Dataset: Auditory brainstem responses to varying stimulus presentation rates of 12 bat species in the wild and captivity

Dataset for the Dataset Publication: Auditory brainstem responses to varying stimulus presentation rates of 12 bat species in the wild and captivity

There are two datasets available: 1) the measured ABRs from Experiments 1 and 2 and 2) the extracted IOIs:

ABR measurements:

The filename of the ABR recordings from Experiment 1 include the species name, individual ID, sex, stimulus presentation rate (indicated as “modrate”) and recording day and time (yyyyddmm). Each recording file contains 256 measurements of the same stimulus and stimulus presentation rate in columns. An exemplary filename would be “Carollia_perspicillata_cp6male_modrate6_20190905T125903”, meaning that this is a recording of Carollia perspicillata individual cp6 of sex male, tested with a stimulus presentation rate of 6 Hz on the 09.05.2019, and the file was saved at 12:59:03 (the T between date and time stands for “Time”).

The filename of the ABR recordings from Experiment 2 include the place of the Experiments (Bad Segeberg) and species name (C. perspicillata), individual ID, sex, stimulus presentation rate (indicated as “modrate”) and recording day and time (yyyymmdd; be aware, that the date format is different between Experiment 1 and 2). Each recording file contains 256 measurements of the same stimulus and stimulus presentation rate in columns. An exemplary filename would be “BadSegeberg_cper_1_male_modrate6_20200622T140952_stimulus_ST01_short  ”, meaning that this is a recording of Carollia perspicillata individual cp6 of sex male, tested with a stimulus presentation rate of 6 Hz on the 09.05.2019, and the file was saved at 12:59:03 (the T between date and time stands for “Time”), the individual was presented with stimulus example 01 of the short stimuli.

IOI recordings

The recordings of Inter-Onset-Intervals are all in one single csv file and species and sequence ID is given per row, to be able to analyze the data further.
