| Summary: | This dataset includes and extends data collected in the NPRB project 1711. Through funding from the North Pacific Research Board (NPRB project number 1711), in 2018 and 2019 we successfully pioneered research on PSS behavior and physiology; information that is needed to evaluate the impact of fishing on these populations and their impacts on fished species, and the effects of climate change on this species. Funding under NPRB project 2004 enabled an additional field season of fishing effort in the summer of 2020, in Resurrection Bay, Alaska, and metabolic data trials for sharks in temporary captivity. Bioenergetics data were generated from respirometry trials conducted at the Alaska SeaLife Center, and behavioral data were generated from telemetry tagging of sharks (free-ranging as well as temporarily captive individuals). Files are .csv with associated .txt lookup tables on catch effort, animal information for individual caught sharks (including ID, morphometrics, tagging information, etc.), blood chemistry and hematologies for a subset of animals that were biosampled. Files include the original project data (NPRB project number 1711) with the supplemental data from this project added (NPRB project number 2004). In addition, data on the respirometry trials are provided (.csv) for the one shark that was brought into the ASLC.
