Prediction map and response curves from the final GAMM on daily maximum depth by salmon sharks. (a) Model predictions of daily maximum depth from the final GAMM are averaged in a 1.5° × 1.5° grid and plotted in false colour with numbered contours representative of predicted maximum depth. Cells without data are interpolated using a spring metaphor. Map was created using MATLAB R2015a (The MathWorks Inc., Natick, MA, USA, https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab.html). (be) Estimated response curves (black solid line) of component smooth functions on daily maximum depth from the final GAMM. Shaded areas represent 95% confidence limits of uncertainty in the centred smooth. Vertical axes are partial responses (estimated, centred smooth functions) on the scale of the linear predictor. Ticks on x-axis denote values for which there are data. Positive values on y-axis (above red dashed line) indicate increased maximum depth.
