    • HMSRP Hawaiian Monk Seal Argos Location Data Summary

    Metadata Updated: October 19, 2024

    This project investigates foraging behavior of Hawaiian monk seals by conducting telemetry studies. During these studies, live seals are instrumented with satellite tags and other instruments to determine foraging locations and dive and foraging behavior. This data set contains a summary of ARGOS ___location data which is contained in GIS data set of raster files/ESRI shape files.

    Lineage Animals were fitted with ARGOS satellite tags. Data were downloaded from ARGOS data services. Raw data were processed using the WCDAP program. Location outputs were screened for spurious locations using the argosfilter routine in R with parameters specified for monk seal movement patterns. Output shape files were projected in the Old Hawaiian projection.
