Data from the Bechervaise Island Adelie penguin weighbridge, 2006 onwards
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The dataset comprises records of crossings by Adelie penguins of a weighbridge and gateway established on Bechervaise Island.
Description
The weighbridge and gateway are positioned so that most or all of the penguins breeding in a set of sub-colonies on the island cross the weighbridge when they leave the colony to forage and when they return from foraging. The gateway records the time of each crossing, the dynamic weight of the penguin as it crosses, and the identity of penguins that have been sub-cutaneously tagged.
The weighbridge and gateway operate continuously throughout the austral breeding season. The data are currently in an unprocessed form.
