Description
Summary:Progress Code: completed Statement: See the quality flags associated with each PTT device. Quality flags can be interpreted as follows: 0 - greater than 1000 metres 1 - less than 1000 metres 2 - less than 350 metres 3 - less than 150 metres A - 3 message location B - 2 message location Z - un-validated location See the ARGOS website for further information. These datasets contain the results from satellite tracking the movements of Adelie Penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) from the following locations in Antarctica: Bechervaise Island, Magnetic Island, Shirley Island, Edmonson Point in Terra Nova Bay, Dumont D'Urville area. By the use of satellite fixes the foraging locations of the penguins were determined. See the child metadata records for further information. This work was completed as part of ASAC project 2205 (ASAC_2205), 'Adelie penguin research and monitoring in support of the CCAMLR Ecosystem Monitoring Project'.
