Abstract

This dataset contains pop-up satellite archival transmitting (PSAT) tag data for 25 individual basking sharks tagged in the North Atlantic Ocean in 2004-2011. Platform terminal transmission (PTT) numbers are used as individual identification numbers throughout the dataset. Unique identification (UID) numbers provide a daily index value.
