Fig. 1. Sample sonomicrometric and electromyogram (EMG) traces from swimming I.
oxyrinchus. (A) Lateral view of a 91 cm mako swimming at
1
L s1 in the swim tunnel. Red and blue arrows
correspond to the axial positions shown in BD. (B) Mako cross sections
at 0.4 and 0.6L, showing the difference in size and location of the
red muscle mass at the two axial positions. Sample of EMG and sonomicrometric
data recorded simultaneously over several consecutive tailbeat cycles in the
anterior (C) and posterior (D) axial positions.
