GPS and Time-Depth Recorder tracking of Adelie and Chinstrap penguins from Signy Island 2008

Adelie and Chinstrap penguins were fitted with a combined GPS and time-depth recorder (TDR) tags for between two and fourteen days in order to log their three-dimensional foraging trips. Tags were deployed between December and February of 2008 with a total of 19 Adelie penguin tracks and 35 Chinstrap penguin tracks.

Statement

Data collection:

The birds were fitted with combined GPS-TDR loggers (Little Leonardo GPL-380DT, Tokyo, Japan).

Dive statistics from the TDR tracks were extracted using the R package diveMove (Luque, 2016 - diveMove: Dive Analysis and Calibration. R package version 1.4.1. http://CRAN.R

Project.Org/Package=diveMove). The filter method of zero offset correction within diveMove (Luque & Fried, 2011 PLOS ONE, 6(1), e15850) was used to define the sea-surface and a depth threshold of 5m was used to exclude any non-foraging dive events (Kokubun, Takahashi, Mori, Watanabe, & Shin, 2010 doi:10.1007/s00227-009-1364-1).
