| 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 24 adult Rockhopper penguins (Eudyptes chrysocome; 20 males, 4 females). PTTs were attached using standard techniques (tesa tape, Loctite glue and cable ties). PTT models used were Wildlife Computers SPOT 216Hs, SPOT-275Bs and SPOT-275Cs. Trackers were deployed for periods between 7-21 days, for a single trip. 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. |
