Figure 3

Changes in aggregate morphology with (a) aggregate size and (b) turbulence intensity. Relationship between the average aspect ratio (\(\bar{{A}{R}}\)) of aggregates (n = 567) with corresponding average values of; (a) major axis length (\(\bar{{M}{a}{j}{A}{L}}\), cm) and (b) the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate (\(\bar{\varepsilon },\) W kg−1). All values were averaged over 10 m depth intervals.
