Description

This dataset contains the underlying data and analysis code for the manuscript 'Sensorimotor strategies for rapid leadership takeover in flying echolocating bats'. It includes four primary MATLAB tables: 1) Echolocation_AnalysisTable.mat: contains different encounter types (Alone, Leads, Follows) and corresponding echolocation parameters- CallPeakPower, Duration, IPI, and CallMaxFreq. 2) Switch_AnalysisTable.mat: contains flight kinematic parameters ( Turn Phase Speed, Pre-Turn Speed, Turn Phase Angular Velocity, Pre-Turn Angular Velocity for every flight type (Switch vs No-Switch) and position (leading vs following). 3) RelativeTurningStartTime_AnalysisTable.mat: contains relative turning start time data for every flight type (Switch vs No-Switch). 4) TrackTable_All.mat: contains all of the raw tracking data used in the paper. The three MATLAB scripts (SwitchAnalysis_GLMMcode.m, RelativeTurningStartTime_GLMM code, and EcholocationAnalysis_GLMMcode.m) can be used to reproduce the main figures and statistical analyses reported in the paper. The audio data folder contains all audio files used in this research
