Figure 5


Fig. 5. Three-dimensional reconstruction of the wake behind the cyclically swimming zebrafish larva (age 3 d.p.f.) (overview panel; letters correspond to flow diagrams A–C). The vortex rings (red) shown in the overview panel take time to develop, so the ring immediately behind the tail has not yet fully formed (blue broken line), as is also evident in C. Transverse cross sections through the larval flow field (A) in front of and (B) behind the larva. (C) Horizontal cross-section through the larval wake. The stronger vortices are due to a slight turn (Fig. 3).
