Figure 3


Fig. 3. Model calibration. (A) 2D field potential surrounding the fish. Top: experimental data obtained from Assad (Assad, 1997). Bottom: simulated values obtained with optimal parameters (including non-uniform skin conductivity). Color maps represent potential with respect to an electrode placed laterally to the fish, near its zero-potential line (as in Fig. 1A). All values below approx. -7.6 mV have been mapped to dark blue in order to show a better contrast between the positive and negative regions of the dipolar field (measured potential in tail region reaches approx. -30 mV). The zero-potential line is shown in yellow. (B) Un-weighted % error and (C) absolute potential differences between data and simulated values found in A. Broken lines show cross-sections at which the potentials are plotted in (D) and (E). Potential differences in C greater than 5 mV are all mapped to dark red. (D) Potential along dotted line near head (5 cm caudal from the tip of the head) in B for model (red) and data (blue). (E) Potential along dotted line near tail (20 cm caudal from the tip of the head) in B for model (red) and data (blue).
