Data from: First direct measurements of behavioural responses by Cuvier’s beaked whales to mid-frequency active sonar

Dive parameter data used in statistical analysisDive parameters for Ziphius cavirostris, calculated from DTAG data collected in the field. Further details of the experimental methods and data processing are included in the manuscript and electronic supplemental material. Abbreviations: max, maximum; m, meters; sec, seconds; h, hours; Hz, Hertz; id, identification code.ZcDiveData_noNaN.txtDTAG non-acoustic sensor data from 2010 (whale ID zc10_272a)zc10_272a.txtDTAG non-acoustic sensor data from 2011 (whale ID zc11_267a)zc11_267a.txtMFA sonar received levelsReceived levels (RLs) of mid-frequency active sonar sounds from controlled exposure experiments and incidental exposure to U.S. Naval exercises. Levels were measured using recordings obtained by tagging Cuvier's beaked whales (Ziphius cavirostris) with DTAGs, digital archival tags that record acoustic data and animal movement data. RLs are reported in dB re 1 uPa rms, measured in a 1/3 octave band centered on the signal frequency; reported levels are the highest in any one 200 msec window over the duration of the recorded signal.ZcRLs.txt
