Dive data files from Lotek 1100 time-depth recorders recorded at 3 second intervals. Each file name has the five- or eight-digit band number that corresponds to the doubly-labelled water measurements, except for those birds that were not banded and only identified by colour marked on their chest. One recorder was also attached to the top of the blind to record ambient temperature and pressure. Each text file has, after, a pre-amble, the date-time, depth (in psi; multiply by 0.71 to approximate depth in m) and temperature (in degrees Celsius).
