    This paper notes additions to both observer and vessel longline forms and manuals for introduction in the 2025 season, related to recommendations endorsed by the Scientific Committee in 2023. The inclusions cover additional skate injury fields as part of the Ross Sea Data Collection Plan, and more detailed tagging information and protocols developed during WS-TAG-2023.
