*% residency time refers to the percent of time spent in resident behaviour within the GMR, as determined by the SSSM model.
**Days monitored refers to the number of days that the shark could be detected by the acoustic receivers (note that acoustic receivers were deployed after the sharks were tagged).
***RI = residency index per site (i.e., total number of days a shark was detected divided by the number of days that the shark was monitored by the receivers).
