ASAC_1219_AAT_SPet_C_00
All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).

Description
The survey was completed as part of ASAC project 1219 (ASAC_1219) during February 2000 at Casey. Differentially corrected GPS data were collected for all snow petrel nests located during intensive searches of ice-free areas in the Casey station extended recreation area.
Public summary for project 1219:
This project provides population data on Antarctic and Subantarctic seabirds that permit assessments to be made of natural population trends at local to regional scales, so that changes in populations due to to human disturbance, such as station activities and helicopter operations can be identified.
