Dive characteristics obtained for six post-breeding females Southern Elephant Seals (SES). SES are identified with their ID. Each row is a dive and each column is a variable associated to this dive:

diveCount: number of the dive for the individual considered

startTime: time at the beginning of the dive

diveDuration: dive duration (s)

maxDepth: maximum depth reaching (m)

surfaceTimeAFTER: time spent at the surface after the dive (s)

descentDuration: descent phase duration (s)

bottomDuration: bottom phase duration (s)

ascentDuration: ascent phase duration (s)

isDrift: 1 drift dive - 0 non-drift dive

captureCount: number of capture during the whole dive

captureBottomCOUNT: number of capture during the bottom phase

descentAngle: average body angle of the animal during the descent phase (°)

ascentAngle: average body angle of the animal during the ascent phase (°)

bodyDensity: body density of the animal (kg.m^-3)

descentEffort: average swimming effort of the animal during the descent phase (m.s^-3)

bottomEffort: average swimming effort of the animal during the bottom phase (m.s^-3)

ascentEffort: average swimming effort of the animal during the ascent phase (m.s^-3)

descentEffortTOT: sum of the swimming effort of the animal during the descent phase (m.s^-2)

bottomEffortTOT: sum of the swimming effort of the animal during the bottom phase (m.s^-2)

ascentEffortTOT: sum of the swimming effort of the animal during the ascent phase (m.s^-2)

captureDescentCOUNT: number of capture during the descent phase

captureAscentCOUNT:number of capture during the ascent phase

surfaceTimeBEFORE: time spent at the surface before the dive (s)

ID: user name of the animal
