Group behavior and tolerance of Eurasian minnow (Phoxinus phoxinus) to tones of differing pulse repetition rate. J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 147(3). DOI: 10.1121/10.0000910 The thesis entitled "Group behavioural responses of cyprinid fishes to artificial acoustic stimuli in riverine environments: Implications for fisheries management". University of Southampton DESCRIPTION OF THE DATA This dataset contains: Relatively little information exists on the long-term responses and recovery of fish to repeated acosutic exposures. In a controlled laboratory study, the response and tolerance of Eurasian minnow (Phoxinus phoxinus) shoals to tonal signals (150 Hz of 1 s pulse duration) differing only in temporal characteristics ("continuous", "slow", "intermediate" or "fast" pulse repetition rate) were investigated. Data was collected through video tracking groups of fish using Matlab script and can be viewed as an excel file.
