Introduction
The objective of this project is to track the movements and habitat use of the threatened Pink-footed Shearwater (Puffinus creatopus) on the wintering grounds off California. Five birds were tagged with solar-powered transmitters programmed to operate on a cycle of 10 hr ON and 48 hr OFF. The birds were captured off Santa Barbara in the Southern California Bight, USA.
The first phase of this project tracked the departure of shearwaters from their colony in the Juan Fernandez Islands, Chile, in the spring of 2006. Check these tracks here: http://www.seaturtle.org/tracking/?project_id=132
El objetivo de este proyecto es seguir los movimientos y el uso del habitat de la pardela de pata rosada (Puffinus creatopus, una especie amenazada), durante el periodo de invierno. Cuatro aves seran marcados utilizando transmisores alimentados por energia solar, programados para operar en ciclos alternos: 10 horas activos y 48 horas inactivos. Los pajaros seran marcados cerca de Santa Barbara, California en el sur de California, USA.
La primera fase de este proyecto siguio la emigracion de cince pardelas desde su colonia en las islas Juan Fernandez Islands, Chile, en la primavera del 2006. Para ver esos viajes, visiten: http://www.seaturtle.org/tracking/?project_id=132
