Lag in days, correlation, and p values associated with cross correlations among selected environmental variables and the depth anomalies of tagged blue rockfish for the periods 16 October 2006 to 15 October 2007, 1 December 2006 to 28 February 2007, and 1 April 2007 to 30 June 2007.

Positive correlations indicate that tagged fish move deeper when upwelling index, atmospheric pressure, or wave height (squared) increased. Tagged fish moved deeper when temperatures declined (ns = not significant, p>0.05). Temperature was sampled at three water depths: 17, 29, and 31 m.
