The overall goal of this project is to increase the longevity of suction cup attachments for short term archival tags such as the DTAG. Specifically, we are working to extend the routine attachment duration for suction cup tags to multiple days, if not weeks. Methods will be developed to extend tag attachment by streamlining tag housings, selecting appropriate materials for tag/cup assembly, improving suction cup design, understanding the behavior of the attachment surface during attachment, and investigating the possible use of adhesives.
