The distances traveled during these periods almost certainly accounted for the consistent errors in logging daily locations. The GLS tags provided sufficient data to identify foraging ranges in these pelagic birds and highlight the need to further study annual movements in addition to the foraging range during the nesting season due to possible inter-annual variability influenced by the variability in oceanographic systems. We dedicate this work to W.

Tijdschrift voor economische en sociale geografie. Spatial and temporal variability of chlorophyll and primary productivity in surface waters of southern Chile The diet of southern rockhopper penguin in the Falklands is predominantly crustacean prey with varying proportions of Euphasia lucens , Euphasia vallentini , Thysanoessa gregaria , Thermisto gaudichaudi and Munida gregaria.
Cephalopods and fish are also taken. Rockhopper penguins migrate during the winter and dispersal occurs within a triangle extending from Falkland coastal waters to the Straits of Magellan and Cape Horn and then travelling as far north as 41 degrees south along the Patagonian Shelf. Southern rockhopper penguins are listed by the IUCN red list as Vulnerable owing to rapid population declines, which, although they have been on-going for perhaps a century, appear to have worsened in recent years.
