Los barcos pesqueros necesitan ser marcados de manera que puedan ser fácilmente identificados de acuerdo a estándares internacionales. El uso correcto del marcado de los barcos permite relacionar al barco pesquero con su identidad, según consta en los registros de buques. Esto permite recuperar la información operacional y/o histórica relacionada con la embarcación, incluyendo las autorizaciones de pesca y otras autorizaciones.

This report presents the results of a Southern Hemisphere stock status assessment of porbeagle shark. The study, along with associated regional studies, was a collaborative one involving many countries with Southern Hemisphere fisheries that catch porbeagles. Participating scientists from Argentina, Chile, Japan, New Zealand and Uruguay contributed data analyses and abundance indices. Our approach combined indicator analyses and a spatially-explicit sustainability risk assessment. Indicator analyses were performed independently for different Southern Hemisphere fisheries and served to characterise local trends in relative abundance based on commercial catch per unit effort (CPUE) data, and trends in size and sex ratio based on biological data.
