Figure 3

Frequency spectra of the curvature of fish body in different swimming regimes. Blue—regular swimming outside the wake, red—altered gait in the hydrofoil wake. Each marker corresponds to an individual fish. The vertical dashed line indicates foil oscillation frequencies. A clear peak at the hydrofoil oscillation frequency is evident in the altered gait cases, corresponding to the fish tuning their body shapes to the vortices.
