This is an acoustic telemetry dataset published by Ghent University. It contains animal (fish) tracking data collected by the Permanent Belgian Acoustic Receiver Network <a href=\"https://lifewatch.be/en/fish-acoustic-receiver-network\"> (https://lifewatch.be/en/fish-acoustic-receiver-network)</a> for the project/study 2015_phd_verhelst_cod, using VEMCO tags (V9, V13, V13AP) and receivers (VR2AR, VR2C, VR2Tx, VR2W). In total 106 individuals of Atlantic cod (<i>Gadus morhua</i>) were captured, tagged and released between 2014 and 2018 in the Scheldt estuary and Belgian Part of the North Sea, to study movement behaviour between the estuary, sand bars, shipwrecks and wind farms.
