THE VENUS ACOUSTIC DATA PACKAGE ACCOMPANIES:
Sato, M., J.F. Dower, E. Kunze, and R. Dewey. 2013. Second-order seasonal variability in diel vertical migration timing of euphausiids in a coastal inlet. Marine Ecology Progress Series 480: 39-56. doi: 10.3354/meps10215
It contains a copy of the processed acoustic data file exactly as used for this paper, as well as an example code (see below). Detailed analysis method was described in Sato et al. (2013). Original raw data are available through the Ocean Networks Canada.
When you use this VENUS Acoustic Data Package, please cite Sato et al. (2013) in addition to this data sets. We also ask you to acknowledge the Ocean Networks Canada for collecting data and maintaining the cabled observatory.
