  abstract = {{A}ssessing the status of tuna and tuna-like populations for providing management advice requires the analysis of multiple data sets collected by the {C}ontracting {P}arties and {C}ooperating non-contracting parties of {T}una {R}egional {F}isheries {M}anagement {O}rganizations (t{RFMO}s) {C}onventions. {D}ata on the magnitude and composition of landings, discards, and fishing effort are currently managed at basin scale by the {S}ecretariats of the t{RFMO}s. {W}e have developed a global harmonized database for tuna fisheries data by collating the public domain datasets from {ICCAT}, {IOTC}, {IATTC} and {WCPFC}. {T}he database covers the period 1919-2014 and is freely accessible online along with a set of open source codes to handle the data. {O}ur objective is to propose services to format and exchange tuna fisheries data and indicators, and promote standards for metadata and data formats to facilitate their through web-based tools. {A}mong others, the expected benefits of the project are the promotion of communication towards t{RFMO}s and their member {S}tates as well as to the general public and the increase of transparency and accessibility to fisheries data sets, indicators, underlying codes, and related expertise.},
