Distribution and reproductive behavior of penguins on Ardley Island and their environmental impact factors
During the 2006/07 Antarctic summer, the species population, distribution and reproductive behavior of penguins in areas near the Great Wall Station were investigated. Five species of penguin were recorded: gentoopenguin(Pygoscelis papua), adelie penguin(P. adeliae), chinstrap penguin(P. antarctica)...
