IMOS - Animal Tracking Facility - GLS tag deployments on Snow petrels (Pagodroma nivea)

GLS tags were deployed on Snow petrels (Pagodroma nivea) in 2011 from Bechervaise Island, Mawson Coast and Filla Island, Rauer Group, as part of AAS project 2722: Identifying potential threats from a changing environment on snow petrel populations requires understanding key ecological processes and their driving factors. The types of tags used were BAS (British Antarctic Survey) geolocators (Mk18). The raw dataset has been processed using the SGAT algorithm (https://github.com/SWotherspoon/SGAT), and the processed product provided here.

2011年，研究人员于莫森海岸贝彻尔瓦斯岛与劳尔群岛菲拉岛的雪鹱（Pagodroma nivea）身上部署了GLS标签（Geolocator Light-level Sensor），相关工作作为AAS项目2722的组成部分推进。该项目旨在识别环境变化对雪鹱种群的潜在威胁，而要达成这一目标，需先明晰其核心生态过程及驱动因素。本次研究所使用的标签为英国南极调查局（British Antarctic Survey, BAS）生产的Mk18型地理定位器。原始数据集已通过SGAT算法（https://github.com/SWotherspoon/SGAT）完成处理，本次提供的即为处理后的成品数据集。
