Description:

Description: English: Vertical behaviour of eel #28 equipped with the X-tag #141105 along its journey from the Scotian Shelf to the Sargasso Sea. The temperature experienced along the way is superimposed to the depth profile. The bottom panel shows the observed daily maximum eel depth (dark blue line) and the corresponding bottom depth at the daily reconstructed location (brown-shaded curve). A is the Scotian Shelf, B represents the edge of the Scotian Shelf, C represents the exit of the Laurentian Channel (open ocean), D represents the area after C, which includes the Gulf Stream and E represents the Sargasso Sea. Français : Comportement vertical de l'anguille en cours de migration (specimen n ° 28 - équipé de la marque X # 141105 - suivi le long de son parcours sur le plateau continental de Nouvelle-Ecosse jusqu'en mer des Sargasses. La courbe de température subie par l'anguille tout au long du chemin de migration vers les Sargasse est superposée au profil de profondeur. Le dessin inférieur montre la profondeur maximale quotidienne observée de l'anguille (ligne bleu foncé) par rapport à la profondeur de l'océan A est le plateau continental de Nouvelle-Ecosse. B représente le bord de ce plateau et C représente la sortie du canal de la Laurentienne (océan ouvert), D représente la zone qui après C comprend le Gulf Stream, E représentant ensuite la mer des Sargasses.
