Title: Bluefin Tuna Life History (1994-1999)
Short Name: Biological Samples -- BFT (94-99)
Status: In Work
Abstract:

This dataset includes information pertaining to samples collected from recreational and commercial fishers in the western north Atlantic Ocean.

Purpose:

Archived.

Notes:

This data was collected prior to my start date with NMFS. No one is too certain about the viability of the soft tissues since they have gone through several thaw and freeze cycles over the years. Some of the samples will be discarded soon and some will be moved to the BFT Archive at the Panama City laboratory.
