TABLE 1.
Averaged fitted parameter values from nine preparations from the region 3.8–4.5 mm from the round window—the basal turn of the cochlea

Radial locations are: inner sulcus cells (ISC), inner hair cells (IHC), tunnel of Corti (ToC), first to third row outer hair cells (OHC), outer tunnel (OT), and Hensen's cells (HeC). N gives the number of measurements used for calculating the average. The subscript on the value of c4 gives the number of measurements, for which both c3 and c4 were significantly different from zero, and the exponential term was consequently included. If the exponential term in Eq. 8 had to be omitted, c4 is meaningless, which is indicated by *; c3 was set to zero in this case. All units are SI.
