Abstract

These data include tail beat kinematics measurements and particle tracking from the appendicularian Oikopleura dioica during experiments conducted in December 2015 at the Sars Centre for Marine Molecular Biology in Bergen, Norway. The experiments comprised three temperature treatments. The data were collected from high-speed video frames. This dataset includes measurements of tail beat frequency. Tail beat kinematic measurements were used to describe how O. dioica drives flow across food con...

The primary data file for this dataset, "897617_tailbeat_counts.csv", contains data on all replicates for each video. The supplemental file, "897617_tailbeat_averages_and_frequency.csv", contains the averages for each video including the average tail beat frequency for each video. The videos are attached as Supplemental Files (there is one .zip folder for each temperature treatment).
