摘要:
SummarySeddon, P.J.&van Heezik, Y. (1990). Diving depths of the Yellow-eyed PenguinMegadyptes antipodes. Emu90, 53–57.The mean maximum dive depth of 43 dives by Yellow-eyed PenguinsMegadyptes antipodesmeasured using capillary depth recorders during incubation was 34±8 m, (19–56 m). There were no differences in the maximum dive depths of males and females overall, or within mated pairs. In conjunction with dietary and foraging trip duration evidence, maximum dive depths suggest foraging Yellow-eyed Penguins remain within 7–13 km of the shore.
