Brief description
Diana Patterson carried out a census of Adelie Penguins and flying birds at Cape Denison in November, December 2002 at the request of Dr Eric Woehler.Diana was at Cape Denison as part of a Mawson's Huts Foundation expedition.
The data include:
1 - Sketches of colony boundaries and nest locations and annotations on a map by Diana.
The map was provided to Diana by Eric and showed bird colonies resulting from an earlier survey by Jim and Yvonne Claypole: refer to the metadata record 'Cape Denison Adelie Penguin census, November - December 1999'.
GIS data with the polygon (colony) and point (nest) data has been created.
2 - Documents with notes and counts.
These data and the data from other bird surveys at Cape Denison are being analysed by Eric and he and Diana intend to publish a paper.
The data will then be released.
These data have been incorporated into ASAC project 1219 (ASAC_1219).
