The Sequence of Implanting an Electronic Transmitter

Each of the embedded transmitters emit a specific frequency each 90 seconds. These transmissions are recorded by three static receivers  placed strategically at 25 mtrs along the Seamount near North Horn of Osprey Reef. The results are downloaded to a computer every two weeks and movement of the embedded sharks are then analysed.
