| Summary: | The successful deployment in recent years of electronic tag technology on Atlantic bluefin tuna has improved our ability to examine their movements throughout the North Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. This has rapidly improved the ability to distinguish where the bluefin tuna feed and breed. When biological and physical data from the tags are combined with information about sea surface temperature and ocean color from remote sensing technologies, the relationship between the movements and behaviors of the fish can be linked to oceanographic processes. This paper focuses on the results of electronic tagging of bluefin tuna in the western North Atlantic. RÉSUMÉ Ces dernières années, le déploiement positif de marques électroniques sur le thon rouge atlantique a amélioré notre capacité à examiner ses déplacements dans l’Atlantique nord et la mer Méditerranée. Ceci a rapidement amélioré la capacité de déterminer les aires trophiques et de frai du thon rouge. Lorsque les données biologiques et physiques provenant des marques sont associées à l’information sur la température à la surface de la mer et la couleur de l’océan obtenue des technologies de télé-détection, les rapports entre les déplacements et les |
