Summary

(NMFS) Cooperative Shark Tagging Program (CSTP) covering the period from 1963 through 2004 are summarized for the sandbar shark (Carcharhinus plumbeus) and the blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus) in the western North Atlantic. The extent of the tagging effort, areas of release and recapture, sour...
