Table 3.

Summary of dive depths and durations for Cuvier's beaked whales. Medians and means are given for each individual, along with coefficients of variation for the mean (CV). The group median, mean and CV are given under ‘total’. Depths are calculated in metres; durations are calculated in minutes. The maximum depth and duration for deep dives are also given. Durations were not calculated for ZcTag050 due to probable errors of undersampling surfacings.
