    Glass eel swimming curves - Vezza et al. 2020

    No full text
    Swimming performance of European eel (Anguilla anguilla) in its juvenile, early life stage (glass eel). The dataset reports swimming curves that were derived by processing data obtained from flume experiments and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The dataset refers to the paper of Vezza et al. (2020) published in Scientific Reports (see references). The study (i) accommodates glass eel burst-and-coast swimming mode and estimates the active swimming time (tac), not considering coast and drift periods, (ii) estimates near-bottom velocities (Ub) experienced by the fish, rather than using bulk averages (U), (iii) investigates water temperature (T) influence on swimming ability.</span

    Dataset supporting the publication &quot;Response of downstream moving European eel (Anguilla anguilla) to hydrodynamic conditions created by channel constrictions&quot;, submitted to the Journal of Ecohydraulics. Information presented in the excel file contains treatment data from the flume study with eels, including results for behavioural response and delay metrics. Columns include: year, date, treatment conditions (e.g. constriction design and discharge regime), eel length and mass, behavioural response on entering the observation and first encountering the channel constrictions, and time to pass. Two supplementary videos are also provide that illustrate &quot;rejection&quot; behaviours when encountering the smooth tapered and sharp angled constriction entrances. </span
