Nest and colony locations for albatross and giant petrels on Macquarie Island

These data were collected as part of project 4112 - Status and trends of Macquarie Island Albatrosses and Giant Petrels: management and conservation of threatened seabirds. These data constitute the data for nesting sites for the 2012-2013 season.The waypoints are provided for all accessible nests of albatross and northern giant petrels that form part of the long term population and demographic study on Macquarie Island. Refer to accompanying annual report for further context and details. For Southern Giant Petrels (which are susceptible to disturbance) the waypoint refers to the location used to census the colony remotely and approximates their actual position.

本数据集为项目4112——“麦夸里岛信天翁与巨鹱的现状及趋势：受威胁海鸟的管理与保护”的组成部分，包含2012-2013繁殖季的筑巢地点数据。航点（waypoints）覆盖了麦夸里岛长期种群与种群统计研究（demographic study）中所有可抵达的信天翁及北方巨鹱（Northern Giant Petrels）巢穴。更多背景信息与细节请参见随附的年度报告。对于易受干扰的南方巨鹱（Southern Giant Petrels），航点为远程统计种群时所用的位置，与实际巢穴位置大致相近。
