Tags were released in quantity (50 units) at each station. Recoveries were made by fishing vessels or from beaches and different sea-areas. Historical data (1969-1990) were translated manually from logbooks into the new database. Original log-sheets, maps and any associated information were scanned and digitised. MEDIN 3.1.1
