Report of the Study Group on Ocean Salmon Tagging Experiments with Data Logging Tags (by correspondence)

a) consider any new information that would aid in designing experiments to tag salmon with data logging tags;b) provide detailed proposal(s) for possible small scale pilot studies that would provide the essential backgroundinformation for a new tagging study, i.e., could include studies on tag reliability, tag attachment, recoverytechniques, etc; and,c) provide a detailed proposal for a possible collaborative international project to study the distribution, movementsand/or behaviour of salmon in the sea using data storage tags with best estimates of time scale, costing andparticipation.
