摘要: Aerial visual acuity and underwater were measured in two sea lions (Zalophus californianus) by training them to emit click bursts if they saw a striped target or remain silent gray target. The closest grating spacings that could be resolved both air under water subtended angle of 5.5 minutes arc at distance meters.
