Summary: | Figure 5. Boxplots comparing approximate dive depth distributions derived using time-attemperature (TAT) data from SPOT satellite tags, to time-at-depth (TAD) summaries, generated from directly observed dive depth time series from SPLASH satellite tag deployments on (a) melon-headed whales (Peponocephala electra), (b) short-finned pilot whales (Globicephala macrorhynchus), (c) sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus), (d) Blainville's beaked whales (Mesoplodon densirostris), and (e) Cuvier's beaked whales (Ziphius cavirostris). Mean of bottom depths (MBD) at the continuous time correlated random walk (CTCRW) maximum likelihood estimated locations of TAT histograms are shown on each plot.
