Movements of blue sharks in the North Atlantic Ocean using satellite telemetry, 2014-2017

This dataset contains Argos-based position estimates that represent the movements of a pelagic predator, the blue shark (Prionace glauca), in the Gulf Stream region and broader North Atlantic Ocean using electronic tags. We collected >2,000 tracking days recorded by 15 instrumented individuals over a three year period. Each individual shark was assigned a unique identification number that includes Taxononomic Serial Number (TSN) from Integrated Taxonomic Information System, tagging year and satellite tag Platform Terminal Transmission (PTT) number as "TSN_YR_PTT". We include one data file (.csv) per individual, a metadata table that provides additional information on size, sex and other metrics, and a metadata table that indicates the date range for data that was manually removed prior to archiving: 160424_2013_132346pnas_atn.csv 160424_2014_141195pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141261pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141264pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141268pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141270pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106744pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106745pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106746pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106747pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106748pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141262pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141263pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141265pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141266pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_165927pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_165928pnas_atn.csv Braun_atn_tag_deployment_metadata.csv cut_dates_atn.csv

本数据集包含基于Argos卫星定位系统（Argos）的位置估算数据，该类数据通过电子标记技术采集，记录了远洋捕食者大青鲨（Prionace glauca）在湾流区域及更广北大西洋海域的移动轨迹。本数据集的采集周期为三年，共覆盖15只佩戴电子追踪标记的个体，累计获取超过2000天的跟踪观测数据。每只个体鲨鱼均被分配唯一识别编号，该编号由综合分类学信息系统（Integrated Taxonomic Information System, ITIS）提供的分类学序列号（Taxonomic Serial Number, TSN）、标记年份以及卫星标记平台终端传输（Platform Terminal Transmission, PTT）编号组合而成，编号格式为"TSN_YR_PTT"。本数据集包含以下内容：每份个体对应的数据文件（.csv格式）、一份记录个体体长、性别及其他相关指标的元数据表，以及一份标注了归档前手动剔除数据的日期范围的元数据表。具体文件清单如下：160424_2013_132346pnas_atn.csv 160424_2014_141195pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141261pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141264pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141268pnas_atn.csv 160424_2015_141270pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106744pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106745pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106746pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106747pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_106748pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141262pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141263pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141265pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_141266pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_165927pnas_atn.csv 160424_2016_165928pnas_atn.csv Braun_atn_tag_deployment_metadata.csv cut_dates_atn.csv
