What’s New Penguin?
May 12, 2018Penguins have been in the news a lot this spring. In March, WHOI seabird ecologist Stephanie Jenouvrier was part of a team of scientists and engineers who discovered of a “supercolony” of Adélie penguins (like these) in Antarctica. In April, a team that included WHOI physicist Daniel Zitterbart published another study involving aerial photographs of king penguins taken from a helicopter. They found similarities between the movements of penguin breeding colonies and the movements of molecules in a two-dimensional liquid. Zitterbart also co-authored a study that came out earlier this month, in which researchers used time-lapse video observations to develop a method to determine the foraging success of Emperor penguins.
