Dolphinfish movements in the Eastern Pacific Ocean of Mexico using conventional and electronic tags

Abstract: Background: The dolphinfish, Coryphaena hippurus, is a fast-swimming, predatory fish exhibiting relatively fast growth and early maturation among marine teleosts. It is an important, potentially renewable resource throughout its global subtropical-to-tropical range. Understanding the ecology of this wide-ranging fish is critical to proper fisheries management, but studies have historically depended heavily upon aggregated catch data reported by fisheries. This study uses tagging data to explore finer scale dol… Show more

“…Tags were deployed on dolphinfish in two distant and distinct Mexican regions of the Eastern Pacific Ocean (EPO, as delineated by Harley 2015 [ 29 ]). A full description of tag deployment and geolocation processing methodology can be found in Perle et al [ 13 ]. Briefly, “Northern” tagging locations within Mexican waters were west of the Baja California Peninsula (WBC), while “southern” tagging locations occurred in the coastal waters west of Oaxaca, Mexico (OAX, Table 1 ).…”

“…Although close in proximity and connected by regional currents, the two regions present dolphinfish significantly different physical environments. The sea surface temperatures of the WBC region vary seasonally (average temperatures ranging from approximately 18°C in the months of Feb-Apr to 24°C in Aug-Sep) and are cooler than those of the OAX region (average sea surface temperatures remain approximately 26–28°C throughout the year) [ 13 ]. Vertical characteristics of the water column also differ.…”
