Identification of marine important bird and biodiversity areas for penguins around the South Shetland Islands and South Orkney Islands
Aim: To provide a method of analyzing penguin tracking data to identify priority at-sea areas for seabird conservation (marine IBAs), based on pre-existing approaches for flying seabirds but revised according to the specific ecology of Pygoscelis penguin species. Location: Waters around the Antarcti...
