| Lineage | The data series has been compiled from all Argos location fixes (quality B,A,0,1,2,3) from Platform Terminal Transmitters (PTTs) deployed on 30 Gentoo penguins (Pygoscelis papua). PTTs were attached using standard techniques (tesa tape, Loctite glue and cable ties). PTT models used were Kiwisat K2G 172As and Wildlife Computers SPOT-275Bs. Trackers were deployed for periods between 1-8 months, for multiple trips. Details of each deployment made (e.g. colony location, bird sex and weight, deployment dates etc.) can be found by cross-referencing the Unique ID number assigned to each bird with that in the data sheet catalogued as FK-SAERI-205 in the IMS-GIS metadata catalogue. |
