Model estimates at the 5th, 50th and 95th percentiles of the weighted distribution of encountered FTLE for all individuals. Estimated feeding rate is for the average blue whale in our study.
| estimate | percentile encountered FTLE |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| 5th | 50th | 95th | |
| encountered FTLE (day−1) | −0.11 | 0.26 | 0.78 |
| probability (not feeding) | 0.56 | 0.51 | 0.42 |
| probability (light feeding) | 0.12 | 0.12 | 0.12 |
| probability (moderate feeding) | 0.21 | 0.22 | 0.24 |
| probability (heavy feeding) | 0.11 | 0.15 | 0.23 |
| estimated feeding rate (lunges h−1) | 10.43 | 11.98 | 14.95 |
