(Color online) Definition of the closed quotient (CQ) used in this study. The solid and dashed curves are the normalized glottal flow waveform and its time derivative. The two vertical lines indicate the instant of glottal opening and glottal closing, which define the open phase of the glottal cycle. The CQ is calculated as one minus the ratio between the open phase and the period of the glottal cycle.
