Le programme de marquage de la CCAMLR est géré par le secrétariat, qui fournit des protocoles normalisés et du matériel de marquage aux navires de pêche participant au programme. Cette normalisation constitue l'un des éléments clés du système de marquage, car la CCAMLR se sert des taux de marquage et de recapture fondés sur les pêches pour estimer l'abondance des légines.
CCAMLR tags must be ordered in sets of 1000 tags. It is recommended that for each set of 1000 tags ordered, two tagging guns be purchased. To order any tags and tagging equipment, please use the Tagging Equipment Order Form.
In addition to purchasing tags, tagging guns and needles a Tagging Equipment box is also available for purchase (A$30.00). The Tagging Equipment box consists of the following items:
The CCAMLR tagging program is administered by the Secretariat which provides standardised tagging protocols and tagging equipment to fishing vessels engaged in the program. This standardisation is an essential component of the tagging program as CCAMLR uses the fisheries-based tag and recapture rates as the basis of abundance estimation for toothfish.
