Description
Summary:Diana Patterson carried out a census of Adelie Penguins and flying birds at Cape Denison in November, December 2002 at the request of Dr Eric Woehler. Diana was at Cape Denison as part of a Mawson's Huts Foundation expedition. The data include: 1 - Sketches of colony boundaries and nest locations and annotations on a map by Diana. The map was provided to Diana by Eric and showed bird colonies resulting from an earlier survey by Jim and Yvonne Claypole: refer to the metadata record 'Cape Denison Adelie Penguin census, November - December 1999'. GIS data with the polygon (colony) and point (nest) data has been created. 2 - Documents with notes and counts. These data and the data from other bird surveys at Cape Denison are being analysed by Eric and he and Diana intend to publish a paper. The data will then be released. These data have been incorporated into ASAC project 1219 (ASAC_1219).
