Description

Count of number of dives observed in each dataset of four trials (T1-T4) of increasing turbulence (s0-s7), corresponding to tank forcing frequencies of 0-1.75 Hz. Dives are identified as per the method described in Wheeler et al. (2013). PIV recordings were performed by J. Wheeler in Summer 2011 and 2012.
