Nonlinearity in intracochlear pressure.
Nonlinearity exists in intracochlear pressure responses close to the cochlea's sensory tissue. Its characteristics are much like those of basilar membrane motion nonlinearity. Here several aspects of the pressure nonlinearity in the base of the gerbil cochlea are illustrated.
