This dataset contains the imagery for two time-lapse cameras installed at two chinstrap penguin colonies, Pygoscelid antarcticus, around Signy Island. The camera imagery are used to monitor nest attendance of chinstrap penguins at Signy. These cameras passively record colony attendance by taking automatic images each day, throughout each year. This dataset includes imagery for the years 2015-2022. This dataset is part of a larger network of time-lapse cameras monitoring seabirds on Signy Island. This monitoring contributes to the CCAMLR Ecosystem Monitoring Program (CEMP) and is part of the annual seabird Long Term Monitoring Science carried out by the British Antarctic Survey at Signy Island. This work was funded by Natural Environment Research Council (UK) core funding to the British Antarctic Survey.

This dataset comprises Platform Terminal Transmitter (PTT) data for chinstrap penguins at Signy, Laurie and Monroe Islands, part of the South Orkney Islands, between December and February 2000-2016 (austral summer). The tracking data encompasses the breeding and post-breeding migratory dispersal of chinstrap penguins. The data includes coordinates for satellite uplinks for each tag and respective trip, along with error values for each satellite uplink. Metadata includes additional information about nesting and morphology, when available. PTT tags were deployed by British Antarctic Survey (BAS) personnel supported by Natural Environment Research Council (UK) core funding, WWF Grant (GB095701), Darwin Plus grant DPLUS054 and CCAMLR special fund.

This dataset comprises Time-Depth Recorder (TDR) tracks of chinstrap penguins, Pygoscelid antarcticus, at the South Orkney Islands (Signy, Monroe, Powell and Laurie Island) from 2011 to 2019. Chinstrap penguins were fitted with TDR tags between December to January (austral summer) to better understand their movement for seabird conservation and management. The data includes temperature and pressure at specified intervals for deployed tags, with additional metadata on the morphology of the birds, their deployment, and breeding. Work was carried out by personnel at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and was funded by Natural Environment Research Council (UK) core funding to BAS. This is an updated version of a previous dataset. There have been additional tracks included with further quality control carried out.

This dataset comprises Global Positioning System (GPS) data for chinstrap penguins, Pygoscelid antarcticus, at the South Orkney Islands (Signy, Monroe, Powell and Laurie island) from 2011 to 2019. Chinstrap penguins were fitted with GPS tags between December to January (austral summer) to better understand their movement for seabird conservation and management. The data includes GPS positions at specified intervals for deployed tags, with additional metadata on the morphology of the birds, their deployment, and breeding. Work was carried out by personnel at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and was funded by Natural Environment Research Council (UK) core funding to BAS. This is an updated version of a previous dataset. There have been additional tracks included with further quality control carried out.
