The deployment log provides information on the date and location of tag deployment, as well and species and site identifiers. The curated data contain once-daily estimates of latitude and longitude from individual seabirds and pinnipeds that were tracked during the non-breeding period (winter) from Cape Shirreff, Livingston Island (-62.47S,-60.77W) and Admiralty Bay, King George Island (-62.178S,-58.446W), South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Data from stationary control tags that were deployed to assess uncertainty and bias in position estimates are also included. In total, the archive contains daily location estimates for 74 Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) from the austral winters of 2011, 2012, and 2014, 4 leopard seals (Hydrurga leptonyx) from the austral winter of 2012, 32 Adelie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) from the austral winter of 2012, 84 chinstrap penguins (P. antarcticus) from the austral winters of 2012 and 2014, 24 brown skuas (Stercorarius antarcticus) from the austral winter of 2012, and 7 control tags from the austral winters of 2011, 2012 and 2014. Individual tags reported locations for between 5 and 421 days, with an average duration across all tags of 180 days. The data include daily estimates of sunrise and sunset at each position, and a minimum daily sea temperature estimated from the upper 50m of the water column. Positions estimates have been corrected for bias and error as described in Hinke et al. 2015. A logical field derived from speed filtering with a maximum velocity of 3 m/s is provided to optionally filter unlikely position estimates. Data and basic visualization code are also available at https://github.com/SWFSC/amlr-gls This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0314795 Preview graphic PNG 0314795 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2026-04-16 publication ANIMALS - INDIVIDUAL - MARKS OR TAGS biological data BIRDS DEPTH - SENSOR LATITUDE LONGITUDE MARINE MAMMALS POSITION - GEOGRAPHIC SPECIES IDENTIFICATION - SEX WATER TEMPERATURE theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS marine animal recording tag instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS in situ survey - biological theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS NOAA Southwest Fisheries Science Center dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS NOAA Fisheries dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Antarctic Marine Living Resources (AMLR) project NODC PROJECT NAMES THESAURUS South Atlantic Ocean South Pacific Ocean Southern Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NMFS > National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOC/NOAA/NMFS/SWFSC > Southwest Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2026 revision 24 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
