Work description
Cefas require services to deliver a project to provide a baseline understanding of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus; ABFT) in waters of the British Isles. To continue the pilot programme started in 2018 of tagging with electronic tags to establish some features of their behaviour and migrations such as residence time, use of the water column (and hence likely prey fields), emigration timing and, potentially, stock of origin.
