Tracking of the broadbill swordfish Xiphias gladius in the South Pacific Ocean (2004-2013)

Pop-up satellite archival tags (PAT4: n=26,Mk10: n=91,Wildlife Computers, U.S.A.) were deployed on the broadbill swordfish Xiphias gladius in waters off eastern Australia (AU; PAT4: n=26;Mk10: n=29), northern New Zealand (NZ;Mk10: n=19), south of the area between Fiji and French Polynesia in the western Pacific Ocean (SFFP; Mk10: n=13), the Cook Islands (CI;Mk10: n = 9) during 2004–2013. A total of 102 tracks are presented here.
