Observation of foot spots over a forty year period from adult Wilson's Storm Petrels (Oceanites oceanicus) at King George Island

DOI

This data set describes the population dynamics of Wilson's Storm Petrels (Oceanites oceanicus) at King George Island (Islas 25 de Mayo, Antarctica) over a forty year period (1978 - 2020). It includes all available data on Wilson's Storm Petrels from two colonies: around the Argentinian Base Carlini (62°14′S, 58°40′W; CA, formerly called Base Jubany) and the Henryk Arctowski Polish Antarctic Station (62°09′S, 58°27′W; HA). Data on adult abundance and estimated age categories (i.e., presence of foot spots; Quillfeldt et al. (2000, doi:10.1007/s003000000167) were collected at CA by using the same size mistnet every study year in the same location within the breeding colony. Adults were ringed with a metal leg ring, and their foot webs were checked for foot spots.

This study was further supported by the Erasmus+ programm and thee German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD)
