Conditions of supply and usage of the data are specified in a formal agreement. Description
The data is derived from the deployment of mark-recapture and electronic tags on starry smooth-hound (Mustelus asterias) in the North Sea and English Channel. Tags were deployed throughout the time period 2004 to 2018. Conventional Petersen disc and Data storage tags were attached to M. asterias between 2004 - 2018 around the southern UK coast. All tagging of M. asterias was funded by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund project code ENG 1395.

Parameters
Fish detections Methodology
Fish detections: Sensor measurement stored on animal-borne tag Fish detections: Conventional tags Conventional tags are essentially fish identification tags. These take many forms and may consist of a long piece of plastic tubing, a disc, or small coded wire. Generally they contain a unique number, identifying the individual fish as well as contact information from the sponsoring organization. They can be secured with a plastic or stainless steel dart or may be inserted under the skin entirely Contributor
