The maritime expeditions of the Australian sea lions are now yielding data that are important to both biologists and oceanographers and refining our understanding of the intimate connections between the mechanics of the Earth&#x2019;s oceans, and the complex ecosystems which dwell within and upon them. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This is an extremely cost-effective means of adding to existing global oceanographic data archives. It has the potential to complement existing sampling methods, especially for regions from which data are scarce and where these alternative methods may be difficult or prohibitively expensive to implement.  Importanly, this approach provides a mechanism of targeting the collection of physical oceanographic data from regions that are biologically of interest (ie. where high trophic level predators feed), therefore providing greater insights into how physical ocean processes underpin marine ecosystems and commercial fisheries.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</abstract><supplinf>Visit STAT's project page for additional information at http://www.seaturtle.org/tracking/index.shtml?project_id=274</supplinf><purpose>Please contact data provider</purpose></descript><citation><citeinfo><origin>Goldsworthy S</origin><pubdate>2024</pubdate><title>South Australia's Sea Lions as Ocean Observers</title><geoform>vector digital data</geoform><serinfo><sername>OBIS-SEAMAP</sername><issue>448</issue></serinfo><pubinfo><pubplace>https://seamap.env.duke.edu/dataset/448</pubplace><publish>OBIS-SEAMAP</publish></pubinfo><onlink>https://doi.org/10.82144/ef60b521</onlink><othercit>originated from Satellite Tracking and Analysis Tool (STAT; https://www.seaturtle.org/tracking/index.shtml?project_id=274)</othercit><edition>Version 1.0.0</edition></citeinfo></citation><timeperd><current>ground condition</current><timeinfo><rngdates><begdate>20081009</begdate><enddate>20110719</enddate></rngdates></timeinfo></timeperd><status><progress>Complete</progress><update>As needed</update></status><spdom><bounding><westbc>110.859</westbc><eastbc>161.083</eastbc><northbc>-27.822</northbc><southbc>-40.285</southbc></bounding><lboundng><leftbc>110.859</leftbc><rightbc>161.083</rightbc><topbc>-27.822</topbc><bottombc>-40.285</bottombc></lboundng><descgeog>Ocean</descgeog></spdom><keywords><theme><themekt>None</themekt><themekey>Marine Biology</themekey></theme></keywords><accconst>The telemetry dataset is publicly visualized on the OBIS-SEAMAP web site.
