Barrow Island Green Turtle Satellite Tracking Program 2013-2014 (aggregated per 1-degree cell)

Original provider: Pendoley Environmental Pty Ltd Dataset credits: Data provider West Australian Sea Turtle Satellite Tracking Project Originating data center Satellite Tracking and Analysis Tool (STAT) Abstract: The first Kiwisat101 satellite transmitters deployed on marine turtles in Western Austalia were attached to hawksbill turtles at Varanus Island and green turtles at Barrow Island over the summer of 2000-2001, as part of Kellie Pendoley's PhD project. In December 2013, a Pendoley Environmental team attached three modern GPS TDR ptt units to green tutles at Barrow Island. Advances in technology over the intervening 13 years is expected to result in substantial improvements in data quantity and quality relative to the turn of the century program. This dataset is a summarized representation of the telemetry locations aggregated per species per 1-degree cell.
