Kevin Crook PhD data archive

This data was compiled and collected by Kevin Crook and included in his PhD this entitled: Assessing the Functional Roles of Rays in Coastal Sandflats. Data types include:

  • A spreadsheet of detection data from Pastinachus ater (Cowtail), Himantura australis (Whipray), and Glaucostegus typus tracked with acoustic telemetry at Lucinda, QLD
  • A spreadsheet of detection data for four P. ater rays acoustically tracked with temperature sensors
  • A spreadsheet of GPS telemetry data of P. ater and H. australis tracked with drones at Lucinda
  • Two spreadsheets with stable isotope values of stingrays, invertebrates, teleosts, and primary producers sampled at Lucinda.
  • A spreadsheet with capture locations and measurments of all stingrays captured at Lucinda
  • A spreadsheet with foraging observations and pit measurements from drone-tracked stingrays.
