Visual tracking data, tern species, Coquet Island SPA (2009 to 2011)

This resource includes a series of spreadsheets which provide visual tracking data from Coquet Island Special Protection Area (SPA), for Arctic, common, roseate, and Sandwich terns. The data cover the breeding seasons between 2009 and 2011, including incubation and chick-rearing periods.

These data were collected as part of a wider JNCC marine SPA identification programme, in conjunction with the four country nature conservation bodies (CNCBs). The data were used to quantify usage of the marine environment by the four larger tern Sterna species around their breeding colony SPAs in the UK.

The data must be used in conjunction with [JNCC Report 500: Quantifying usage of the marine environment by terns Sterna sp. around their breeding colony SPAs (Wilson et *al*. 2014)](https://hub.jncc.gov.uk/assets/926cdbbd-c384-42a9-b9e5-81abd778bbd0).

本资源包含一系列电子表格，这些表格提供了来自科克岛特别保护区（SPA）的视觉跟踪数据，涉及北极、普通、粉红和三明治海鸥。数据涵盖了2009年至2011年间的繁殖季节，包括孵化期和雏鸟养育期。

这些数据作为JNCC海洋SPA识别项目的一部分被收集，该项目与四个国家的自然保护机构（CNCBs）合作进行。数据被用于量化四个较大海鸥物种（Sterna属）在英国繁殖地SPA周围海洋环境的使用情况。

使用这些数据时，必须与[JNCC报告500：量化海鸥（Sterna sp.）在其繁殖地SPA周围海洋环境的使用情况（Wilson等，2014）](https://hub.jncc.gov.uk/assets/926cdbbd-c384-42a9-b9e5-81abd778bbd0)相结合。
