aComputed as the total number of valid data points obtained divided by the run time for each deployment multiplied by the sampling frequency (expected data).
bRepresents the percent of expected runtime.
cPercent of deployments resulting in >90% of expected runtime.
dSampling frequency was variable during deployments (Median (IQR) seconds between data points = 480 (240–1560)).
