Analysis of tagging data from North Atlantic Albacore (Thunnus Alalunga): Attrition Rate Estimates

Description : In this study, an attempt is made to estimate natural mortality rate for North Atlantic albacore. We implement a spatially aggregated tag-attrition model to analyse the results of an albacore tagging experiment conducted in the Bay of Biscay from 1988 to 1991. The model predicts probabilities of th...
