The 2nd
nd international tagging and tracking symposium
was held in San Sebastian, Spain, in October 2007, seven years
after the first symposium was held in Hawaii in 2000 (Sibert and
Nielsen 2001). In the intervening seven years, there have been
major advances in both the capability and reliability of
electronic tags and analytical approaches for geolocation of
tagged animals in marine habitats. Advances such as increased
data storage capacity, sensor development, and tag
miniaturization have allowed researchers to track a much wider
array of marine animals, not just large and charismatic species.
Importantly, data returned by these tags are now being used in
population analyses and movement simulations that can be directly
utilized in stock assessments and other management applications.

Papers in this volume are divided into three sections, the first
describing insights into behavior achieved using acoustic,
archival, and novel tags, the second reporting on advances in
methods of geolocation, while the final section includes
contributions where tag data have been used in management of
marine species. Accurate documentation of animal movements and
behaviors in critical marine habitats are impossible to obtain
with other technologies. The management and conservation of
marine species are critical in today’s changing ocean environment
and as electronic tags become more accurate and functional for a
diversity of organisms their application continues to grow,
setting new standards in science and technology.
