The use of an automated weighing and recording system for the study of the biology of Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) / Knowles R. Kerry, Judith Clarke, Grant Else.
Title: | The use of an automated weighing and recording system for the study of the biology of Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) / Knowles R. Kerry, Judith Clarke, Grant Else. |
Author(s): | Kerry, Knowles R. Clarke, Judith. Else, Grant. |
Date: | 1993. |
In: | National Institute of Polar Research. Proceedings of the NIPR Symposium on Polar Biology. (1993.), Vol. 6 (1993) |
Abstract: | Describes system that automatically weighs, identifies and determines direction of penguins moving between breeding colony and sea. Presents data related to foraging ecology for complete colony (589 nests from which 412 chicks were fledged) for period of hatching to fledging. Data obtained at Bechervaise Island during 1991/92 breeding season. |
Notes: | National Institute of Polar Research. Proceedings of the NIPR Symposium on Polar Biology. Vol. 6 :62-75 (1993). |
