Lip-reading in remote subjects: An attempt to quantify and separate ingestion, breathing and vocalisation in free-living animals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A new mandibular sensor is presented here based on the use of a Hall sensor, attached to one mandible, opposite a magnet, attached to the other mandible. Changes in sensor voltage, proportional to magnetic field strength, and thus inter-mandibular angle,

Population regulation in Magellanic penguins: what determines changes in colony size? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Seabirds are often studied at individual colonies, but the confounding effects of emigration and mortality processes in open populations may lead to inappropriate conclusions on the mechanisms underlying population changes. Magellanic penguin (Spheniscus

Morphology and Morphometry of the Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) Trachea

open access: yesJournal of Health & Biological Sciences, 2023
Objective: This work aimed to describe the trachea of the Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) through descriptive and morphometric approaches. Methods: ten adult male Spheniscus magellanicus were used, which were collected, fixed, and kept immersed in an aqueous solution of 10% formaldehyde.

Surviving probability indicators of landing juvenile magellanic penguins arriving along the southern Brazilian coast

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2010
The aim of this work was to monitor and study the hematocrit and weight of juvenile penguins, with and without oil cover, found alive along the southern coast of Brazil, after capture, as well as before eventual death or release.

Antennae on transmitters on free-living marine animals: Balancing budgets on the high wire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The effect of externally mounted antennae on the energetics of penguins was studied by mounting various antennae on a transducer fixed to a model Magellanic penguin Spheniscus magellanicus to determine drag, run at speeds of up to 2 m s–1 in a swim canal.
