Juvenile striped bass overwintering behaviour

This is the OBIS extraction of the Ocean Tracking Network and Acadia University (Acadia U) Juvenile striped bass overwintering behaviour, consisting of the release tagging metadata, i.e. the location and date when the tagged animal was released, and summarized detection events of tagged individuals.
If readers are interested in the source dataset they may also inquire with the project PIs as listed here or on the OTN web site (https://members.oceantrack.org/project?ccode=ALLIMB).Abstract:Acoustic receivers have been deployed throughout the Minas Basin. Seventy-five striped bass were tagged with Innovasea acoustic tags at various locations around the Minas Basin in Fall 2023, and at least 20 more will be tagged in Fall 2024. This project's objectives are to identify juvenile striped bass overwintering habitat(s) in the Minas Basin and quantify juvenile striped bass over winterer use of the Minas Passage using acoustic telemetry. This research is part of a collaborative project between Mi'kmaw traditional knowledge holders, fishers, academia, community partners, and government. The results from this research will assess the risk of striped bass collisions with tidal energy infrastructure in the Minas Passage during an important life stage and fill knowledge gaps important for their management and conservation.
