Summary:
Drs. Kooyman and Ponganis are studying the effects of iceberg B15 on the penguin rookery at Cape Crozier. They are attempting to use satellite imagery to perform a census of the colonies in the area. For ground control, the researchers placed large orange markers around one colony. UNAVCO surveyed these control points (Figure 8), and performed a continuous kinematic survey around the extents of the colony. For this project, UNAVCO provided equipment, field support and data archiving.
