2006 - 2014 Centre for Environment, Fisheries & Aquaculture Science (Cefas) Migration of tagged silver eels in the Atlantic 2006 - 2014

Abstract

Known and estimated locations of silver European eels in the Atlantic from 2006 to 2014 derived from popup satellite tags and archival tags. Other data associated with the tagging experiments such as the length, weight, fat percentage, Pankhurst index and Fin index are also included.
