Enclosure Fish Behaviors

This data set is compiled of telemetry records collected from accelerometer tags implanted in steelhead monitored within an enclosed space. The enclosure was located at Winthrop National Fish Hatchery, (address; 453B Twin Lakes Rd, Winthrop, WA 98862. Speco underwater video cameras were positioned within the enclosures and the recorded video timing was synchronous in time with radio telemetry receivers, positioned on site. Each fish was monitored continuously for 2 or 3 days during daylight hours, only 10 to 15 minute blocks of time were observed for each hour of data collected, and blocks were randomly selected for video observation. Fish behaviors were observed and alined to telemetry records, each record, termed "burst index," lasted ~4 seconds and was assigned a behavior with the exception of when the fish moved out of view of the camera (out of view). Observed behaviors include holding, oviposition, digging, covering, lateral movements, burst movements, coaxing, and aggression. Video examples of select behaviors are provided and available for editors (see archived data). Each observed fish's records are provided on a separate spreadsheet. A description of each columns data is provided on the sheet entitled metadata.
