    • AFSC/ABL:Coded-wire tag (CWT) database for NOAA Fisheries, Alaska

    Metadata Updated: June 1, 2025

    Information on CWT salmonids throughout the Pacific region is available in an on-line coastwide database, the Regional Mark Information System (RMIS). This database (see http://www.psmfc.org/rmpc/index.html ) is maintained by the Regional Mark Processing Center (RMPC) of the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission (PSMFC) to facilitate exchange of CWT data between release agencies, sampling/recovery agencies, and other data users. NOAA Fisheries at Auke Bay Laboratories (ABL) is responsible for maintaining several different components of this coastwide CWT database including a complete list of release records for CWT salmonids released from Federally-funded research programs in Alaska.
