A stable isotope analysis on blood and whiskers samples from adult female Antarctic fur seals, from 3 colonies in the Southern Ocean: - Marion Island (2008-2018) - Bird Island, South Georgia (2008-2012) - Cape Shirreff, South Shetland Islands (2008-2012) The purpose of the study is to examine temporal, spatial and individual variation in the trophic ecology of Antarctic fur seal, and their role as sentinels of change in the Southern Ocean ecosystem. EMBARGO NOTE: Data is embargoed until 01/01/2027. The data files associated with this record will be made available at this time.
-
Data collected to measure foraging and reproductive success. Stored as time series data including mass, condition (fat stores), length, girth, offspring survival and growth. Data collected and methodology used varies depending on species.
-
Stable isotope data, fatty acid and diet data was collected from a number of predator species in the southern ocean. Data was collected from blood, blubber, feathers and whisker samples
-
Raw time series of depth, water temperature, light and swim speed. Stomach temperature and heart rate are available in some instances, but the data is sparse. Data was collected using time/depth recorders and satellite telemetry. Ancillary location was recorded from a separate logger.
