  • Platform Transmitting Terminal (PTT) tags were used to track Antarctic Fur Seals (Arctocephalus gazella) from Bird Island, South Georgia, 1995-2010. PTT tags use the ARGOS satellite system to collect geospatial data. Tags were deployed on breeding females during the summer, to provide information on where the seals are foraging during lactation and into the winter months.

  • Platform Transmitting Terminal (PTT) tags have been used to track Macaroni Penguins (Eudyptes chrysolophus) and Gentoo Penguins (Pygoscelis papua) from Bird Island, South Georgia, since 1998. PTT tags use the ARGOS satellite system to collect geospatial data. These tags are deployed on a project-by-project basis and so data are not available for every year. Tags are generally deployed during the summer season, however, some winter data are available.

  • Platform Transmitting Terminal (PTT) tags have been used to track Macaroni Penguins (Eudyptes chrysolophus), Gentoo Penguins (Pygoscelis papua) and King Penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus) from South Georgia since 2004. PTT tags use the ARGOS satellite system to collect geospatial data. These tags are deployed on a project-by-project basis and so data are not available for every year. Included in the dataset is data from females recorded during long, post-laying foraging periods as well as from fledged birds.

  • This dataset comprises Global Positioning System (GPS) data for Adelie penguins, Pygoscelid adeliae, at Signy Island, South Orkneys Islands, from December 2011 to January 2016 (austral summer). Adelie penguins were fitted with GPS tags at Signy Island to better understand their movement for seabird conservation and management. This 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 dataset comprises Time-Depth Recorder (TDR) tracks for Adelie penguins, pygoscelid adeliae, at Signy Island, South Orkneys Islands, from December 2011 to January 2016 (austral summer). Adelie penguins were fitted with TDR tags at Signy Island 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 dataset comprises Time-Depth Recorder (TDR) tracks for gentoo penguins, Pygoscelid papua, at Signy Island, South Orkneys Islands, from December 2011 to January 2016 (austral summer). Gentoo penguins were fitted with TDR tags at Signy Island 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 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.
