Electronic tag tracking data from starry smooth-hound Mustelus asterias in the northeast Atlantic 2004-2018
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. The dataset includes 36 individual M. asterias, 18 of which were tagged with mark-recapture tags only, and 18 were tagging with both mark-recapture and electronic tags. Six electronically tagged M. asterias were geolocated and their estimated daily geographical locations (latitude and longitude) are provided. Depth and temperature data from these six M. asterias are also provided. 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.
