1 Ocean Tracking Network The Arctic Ocean Tracking Network: Movement and behaviour of an important commercial fish species, Greenland halibut and bycatch species, Greenland shark and Arctic skate in Cumberland Sound. Nigel E. Hussey, Iva Peklova, Kevin J. Hedges, Svein Vagle, Jeannette Bedard, Margaret Treble and Aaron T. Fisk

2 Ocean Tracking Network Overall Arctic OTN objective: A long term integrative research program which makes use of the latest acoustic and satellite tracking technologies to understand multi-species movements in both a developing and changing ecosystem.
