Summary: | Committee on Scientific Research and Statistics (CSRS) In 2009, high seas tags were recovered from five chum salmon in Japan, and 16 pink, one chum, and one sockeye salmon in Russia. In addition, two high seas tags were recovered; from one coho and one pink salmon recaptured in 2007 in Russia. A chum salmon recaptured in Japan also carried a data storage tag. In 2010, tagging operations were conducted by the research vessel, Wakaktake maru, which conducted, 24 longline (720 hachi) operations from June to July for the purpose of placing disk tags on salmonids. From these operations, a total 235 salmonids (18 sockeye, 102 chum, 21 pink, 84 coho, and one Chinook salmon, and nine steelhead trout) in the central North Pacific and 1,166 salmonids (74 sockeye, 1,067 chum, 14 pink, and 11 Chinook salmon) in the Bering Sea were tagged and released. |
