"The Cooperative Game Fish Tagging Program is a joint research effort by scientists, recreational, and commercial fishermen. It is designed to provide basic information on the movements and biology of game fish populations in the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea through the direct participation of the public in scientific research. In 1990, program cooperators and scientists tagged and released 10,955 fish of 47 species in the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea. A total of 6,970 billfish were tagged and released: 3,309 sailfish, 1,274 white marlin, 1,993 blue marlin, and 394 swordfish. There were 1,256 tunas tagged and released: 597 yellowfin, 415 bluefin, and 244 miscellaneous tunas. Other species tagged and released by program cooperators were: 581 red drum, 772 tarpon, 456 king mackerel, 320 amberjack, and 201 cobia. In addition, 399 fish of 32 miscellaneous species were tagged and released"--Page 1, paragraphs 1-2
"The Southeast Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC) is one of five regional fishery research centers of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). In 1970, the NMFS was organized as a component of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the U.S. Department of Commerce. The Fisheries Science Centers provide scientific information required for decisions relating to the conservation and management of fishery resources, and the protection of fishery habitats, endangered and threatened species. In 1972, the NOAA Technical Memorandum series was established and the Southeast Fisheries Science Center began the publication of research reports. The purpose of this series is timely dissemination of the results of scientific research. The series also affords the SEFSC a means of publishing research results in greater depth and detail than is normally allowed by scientific journals, which usually have stringent length restrictions. To address the difficulties of identification and location of these publications, we present the following listing of SEFSC Technical Memoranda from number 1 (1972) to number 340 (1993). They are available from their originating laboratories or from the National Technical Information Service. A directory of these sources is provided on page 2"--Introduction
