Figure 3A-E in Variability in Reception Duration of Dual Satellite Tags on Sea Turtles Tracked in the Pacific Ocean

Figure 3A-E. Number of transmissions by month for five turtles that have over 30 days difference in tag duration between the two tags on each turtle. Turtle number on each graph is connected to the numbers assigned to the turtle in Table 1. Legends indicate which tag ID goes with each color on the graphic.
