Description
Summary:Adélie penguin foraging trip duration records for Béchervaise Island, Mawson since 1991-92. Data include average male and female foraging trip durations for both the guard and creche stages of the breeding season.\n\nData based on records of tagged birds crossing the APMS for in and out crossings. Durations determined from difference between out and in crossings in conjunction with nest census records. Data included only for birds which were known to be foraging for a live chick.\n\nThis work was completed as part of ASAC Project 2205, Adélie penguin research and monitoring in support of the CCAMLR Ecosystem Monitoring Project.\n\nThe fields in this dataset are:\nYear\ntrip duration (hours)\nMean , standard error, count and standard deviation for male and female foraging trips during guard and creche stages of the breeding season.
