Shearwater R Documentation
Short-tailed Shearwater Track
Description
Twilight times from a flight of a Short-tailed Shearwater.
Format
A data frame with 3 columns and 72 rows. The columns
represent
twilight times of twilight.
rise logical indicating which twilights are sunrise.
burrow logical indicating when the bird in its burrow.
Details
Twilight times derived from light intensity measurements from an
archival tag on a Short-tailed Shearwater (Puffinus
tenuirostris). The bird was tagged at its burrow on Wedge
Island, Tasmania Australia (147.670E 43.133S). The bird makes two
foraging trips, returning to its burrow after each trip.
When the bird is in its burrow, no light is recorded by the tag
and the twilights reported in the data set are the calculated
twilights Wedge Island when solar zenith is 95 degrees.
