UC Berkeley and Project CETI study shows sperm whales . . . Scientists have spent the last five years observing sperm whale communication and behaviors using tags, buoys and drones They’ve finally begun to learn how whales use calls for communication
Sperm Whales Communicate Similar to Humans | Research UC Berkeley The acoustic properties of whale calls resemble vowels, a defining feature of human language, according to a new study from UC Berkeley’s Linguistics Department and Project CETI (Cetacean Translation Initiative)
Sperm Whales May Be Speaking In Vowels Too - Wild Science Sperm whales may shape their clicks into something closer to speech than code New research from UC Berkeley linguists and Project CETI suggests their calls contain vowel like structures with a human style complexity that challenges long held assumptions about animal communication
UC Berkeley Scientists Hail Breakthrough In Decoding Whale . . . UC Berkeley researchers working with Project CETI discovered that sperm whales produce vowel-like sounds embedded in their click codas, suggesting a far more complex communication system than previously understood "It was striking just how structured the system was I've never seen anything like th
Sperm whales might actually talk like us, study finds Turns out, sperm whales aren't just clicking for fun—they may use a form of communication with structural similarities to human language A new study from UC Berkeley and Project CETI found that
