    Notizen: Abstract The foraging ecology of rockhopper penguins was studied at Possession Island, southern Indian Ocean, by counting the number of birds departing from and arriving at colonies over the course of the day and by equipping three birds with time/depth loggers, one of which was recovered having recorded a total of 12 days foraging activity. Both the counts and the results from the diving behaviour showed that the birds foraged exclusively diurnally. Maximum dive depth was 66 m although most time was spent between 10 and 25 m, depths that did not accord with the published distribution of their principal prey as detected by nets and acoustics.

    Notizen: [Auszug] SIR - Nimon et al1 found no differences in the heart rate of gentoo penguins (Pygoscelis papua), measured by using an artificial egg, in the absence and presence of one person. They concluded from this observation that our recorded increases in Adelie penguin (P adeliae) heart rate during human ...

    Notizen: [Auszug] What oceanic seabirds do outside their breeding periods is something of a mystery, although altogether these “sabbaticals’ add up to more than half of their lifetime and are probably a key feature of their life history. Here we use geolocation systems based on light-intensity ...

    Notizen: Abstract Most depth recorders used to study the diving behaviour of polar marine endotherms record depth data at specific time intervals. The length of recording interval can have potentially profound implications for the interpretation of the data. We used data acquired on the diving behaviour of king penguins, Aptenodytes patagonicus, to examine the validity of various analyses routinely conducted on depth data. In our experiments, increasing the sampling interval led to an underestimation of the number of dives performed, an overestimation in mean dive duration and substantial changes in the form of the dive profile. Our analysis indicates that depth data should be recorded at a minimum rate corresponding to 10% of the total dive duration and that conventional dive profile categorization may be inappropriate. Alternatives that are less subjective, and based on curve fits of dive depth versus time, are proposed.

    Notizen: Summary In Antarctica, we investigated the energy consumption of Adélie (Pygoscelis adeliae), Gentoo (P. papua) and Chinstrap (P. antarctica) penguins while resting in the water (8.4 W-kg−1) and swimming underwater at various speeds, using a 21m long canal filled with sea-water at 4°C in conjunction with respirometry. The birds swam at will and consumed 15.7, 16.1 and 10 W·kg−1 at the speed where cost of transport was minimal (2.1, 2.3 and 2.5 m·s−1 in Adélie, Gentoo and Chinstrap penguins, respectively). Thermal conductance in pygoscelid penguins was 3.3 W·°C−1. m−2 and energy expenditure (Pi, W·kg−1) while resting in the water is given by Pj = -0.3 ta+9.6, where ta is water temperature in °C. During the breeding season, pygoscelid penguins spend 25–40% of their daily energy expenditure while foraging at sea. The importance of accurate estimates of at-sea activity and energy consumption is discussed.

    Notizen: Summary In the course of physiological field studies, we opportunistically examined the effects of humans and aircraft on breeding Adélie Penguins Pygoscelis adeliae. Proximity to both aircraft and humans caused substantial increases in penguin heart rate even when no external stress was manifest. A solitary human at 20 m distance from commuting penguins on a well-used pathway caused the birds to deviate by 70 m. Birds at nests exposed to a single human fled much more readily when the brood consisted of large chicks (critical distance 6.1 m) rather than small chicks (critical distance 1.3 m) or eggs (critical distance 0.3 m). Aircraft caused birds to panic at distances greater than 1,000 m and 3 days exposure to a helicopter inhibited birds that had been foraging from returning to their nests, caused bird numbers in the colonies to decrease by 15% and produced an active nest mortality of 8%. Based on this data, we make recommendations to minimize stress on Adélie Penguin colonies exposed to man.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung In klaren Gewässern in Chile tauchende Humboldt-Pinguine zeigten zwei deutlich verschiedene Verhaltensweisen. Während kurzer Tauchgänge $$(\bar x = 13,3 s)$$ blieben die Tiere im Bereich von 1 m unter der Oberfläche. Tauchgänge durch unmittelbares Abtauchen in einem Winkel von 45° eingeleitet, führten direkt zum Meeresboden; die Vögel kehrten sofort wieder an die Oberfläche zurück. In diesem Fall war die Tauchzeit von der Wassertiefe abhängig. Pinguine, deren Magen durch Auspumpen untersucht wurde, hatten vorwiegend pelagische Schwarmfische gefressen:Scomberesox, Engraulis undSardinops. Die Mehrzahl der Fische (94 %) wurde von unten kommend erfaßt. Nach unserer Auffassung sind die kurzen und flachen Tauchgänge typisch für nicht jagende Pinguine, die längere horizontale Strecken zurücklegen. Das tiefe Abtauchen dagegen ermöglicht jagenden Pinguinen, die ein besonders gutes Fernsichtvermögen oberhalb des Schnabels besitzen, nahe der Oberfläche schwimmende Beute leichter zu erfassen. Die sonst silbrigen clupeiden Fische sind als dunkle Silhouetten gegen die Wasseroberfläche besser zu erkennen.
    Notizen: Summary Humboldt Penguins diving in clear water in Chile had two distinct behaviours; short dives $$(\bar x = 13.3 s)$$ where the birds remained within a metre of the surface and bounce dives, where the penguins descended the water column to the sea bed where they immediately returned to the surface. Here, dive time was correlated with water depth. Stomach pumped penguins had eaten predominantly pelagic school fish,Scomberesox, Engraulis andSardinops. Most prey (94 %) had been seized from below. We suggest that short, shallow dives are typical of travelling penguins. Bounce dives, however, would enable foraging penguins, which have an enhanced binocular field above the line of the bill, to perceive surface-swimming prey more easily because silvery clupeid fish appear as silhouettes.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Miniatur-Tiefenmeßgeräte wurden 8 Eselpinguinen angeheftet und die gewonnenen Daten der Aufenthaltsdauer in verschiedenen Wassertiefen untersucht. Die Vögel zeigten zwei Muster der Tiefenausnutzung, (1) abnehmende Aufenthaltsdauer mit zunehmender Wassertiefe, das wir als „Stoßtauchen“ im Pelagial interpretieren und (2) konstante Aufenthaltsdauer pro Tiefenintervall bis in bestimmte Tiefen, in denen lange Verweildauer registriert wurden. Letzteres interpretieren wir als „Grundtauchen“ bei Vögeln, die am Meeresboden nach Nahrung suchen. Aus der Literatur wurden „multiple Tiefenmaxima“ für verschiedene Pinguinarten entnommen und analysiert, um die Aufenthaltsdauer pro Tiefenintervall zu rekonstruieren. Diese Ergebnisse zeigen zusammen mit tatsächlichen Meßdaten, daß die Tiefenausnutzung der Pinguine stark massenabhängig ist, wobei größere Arten eine größeren Zeitanteil in tieferem Wasser verbringen.
    Notizen: Summary Time-at-depth data, recorded by animal-attached miniature depth gauges, were examined in 8 Gentoo Penguins. Birds showed two depth utiliuation patterns, (1) decreasing time with increasing depth, which we interpret as due to “bounce-diving” in the pelagic zone and (2) constant time per depth interval down to specific depths where large time peaks were encountered. We interprete this as “flat-bottomed” diving in benthic-foraging birds. Multiple maximum depth data reported in the literature for various penguin species were analysed to try and reconstruct proportional time-at-depth. These results, together with real time-at-depth data, indicated that penguin depth utilization was strongly mass dependent with larger species spending a greater proportion of time in deeper water.

    Notizen: Summary Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) carrying dummy instruments were used to determine field metabolic rates using double-labelled water. All penguins injected with double-labelled water showed a marked loss of body mass (-4.5%) during the period of the experiments (20–131 h), irrespective of the time of the breeding season. Total body water averaged 57.3% and water flux estimates of field metabolic rates correlated with double-labelled water estimates of field metabolic rate (r 2=0.68), indicating that Adélie penguins do not ingest significant amounts of sea water. Brooding Adélie penguins had a mean field metabolic rate of 10.1 W·kg-1 and at sea a field metabolic rate of 13.3 W·kg-1, both of which compare well with previously published estimates based on time/activity budgets and respirometry. Mean field metabolic rate in penguins with crèching chicks was 14.1 W·kg-1, and the birds spent 65 h absent from the nest as opposed to previous estimates of 7.1 W·kg-1 and 21 h. The effects of weather, disturbance and manipulation on the behaviour and field metabolic rate of penguins late in the breeding season are discussed. Adélie penguins (crèching chicks) equipped with externally attached instruments spent more time absent from the nest than noninstrumented controls (76 vs 54 h), but had a lower field metabolic rate.
