Table 2. Summary of the animal telemetry assets gathered by the ATN-TT during outreach to researchers currently conducting animal telemetry projects. This table is not a complete inventory of animal telemetry assets, but it provides an indicative sampling of the number and types of assets that the ATN Implementation Plan will aim to integrate. The purpose of this inventory is to provide an overview of the animal telemetry equipment assets that could be considered for inclusion in the ATN. Assets are highlighted in orange columns and include acoustic receivers, receiver arrays, and receivers on buoys and gliders. Other assets include satellite, archival, and acoustic tags with the associated numbers for each asset. Other information is principal investigator, associated project, target species as common and/or scientific name.
