Temperature range occupation and zonal current influence in the equatorial region.
(a) Subsurface temperature analysis is based on TAT data from 13 tags. Represented separately are WS-3 tag data and the subset of WS-3 tag data during which the shark transited across a ship survey (Fig 7a). (b) Histograms of zonal speeds of (1) shark movements and (2) surface currents at shark locations.
