This paper aims to provide the information on transboundary CCAMLR and SIOFA toothfish tagging data requested by the SIOFA Scientific Committee at its 8th annual meeting (paragraph 113 of its meeting report).
This paper contains both previously available information (i.e., from papers presented at SC-CAMLR) and novel information retrieved through the standing data exchange arrangement between SIOFA and CCAMLR.
Of the total 27 tagged individuals that were recaptured in the SIOFA Area, information could be matched for 22 while 5 individuals could not be reliably matched with any record, likely due to mismatches between timelines of dataset updates. Of these 22 toothfish recaptures, 15 were originally released in CCAMLR, while 7 recaptures originated from releases within the SIOFA Area.
Complying with the restrictions imposed to ensure the confidentiality of data, this paper access has been restricted.
