Created 24/06/2017

Updated 24/06/2017

Intermittent Adélie penguin population counts for Béchervaise, Verner and Petersen Islands, Mawson since 1971. Data include counts of occupied nests for the post 1990/91 data conducted on or about 2nd December. Data collected prior to this were obtained from ANARE Research Notes or field note books. These counts may not have been performed at the 'optimal' time for occupied nests counts, and when this is the case have been adjusted according to a 'correction' factor.

The post 1990/91 data were completed as part of ASAC Project 2205, Adélie penguin research and monitoring in support of the CCAMLR Ecosystem Monitoring Project.
