Summary

Description

AMLR researchers collect predator data at field stations located at Cape Shirreff on Livingston Island (seabird and pinniped data) and at Copacabana in Admiralty Bay on King George Island (seabird data). Observational predator data is also collected from research vessels. Predator data is collected primarily in the austral spring-summer window, although some of the predators are tagged for overwinter distribution studies, and during the AMLR winter vessel surveys.

Time Frame 1
1986 - Present

Annual surveys vary between austral summers and winters. Land based studies are focused on austral summer (roughly late October through early March). Vessel based surveys are normally conducted in the austral summer (January through March), however in recent years, surveys have been conducted in the austral winter (August/September time frame) to accommodate over winter studies.
