In-situ organic remains (total of 15 eggshell fragments, bone, and feather samples) were collected from the pits for radiocarbon dating. Pits were dug to ice-cement or groundwater, which ranged from 22 cm (ground water) or 34 cm (ice-cement) to 88 cm. A total of six pits were sampled, four pits were dug in the penguin colony and two control pits were sampled out of the colony to establish background levels of contaminants.\n\nSoil Sampling Coordinates (Colony):\nCHA1 (72.31871, 170.21951)\nCHA2 (-72.31737, 170.21262)\nCHA3 (-72.31892, 170.22006)\nCHA4 (-72.31808, 170.22272)\n\nSoil Sampling Coordinates (Control):\nCHC1 (-72.32162, 170.22688)\nCHC2 (-72.32125, 170.22778)\n\nEggshell Sample Coordinates:\nSample 1 (-72.31887\/170.22870)\nSample 2 (-72.31918\/170.22821)\nSample 3 (-72.31975\/170.22762)\n\nGET DATA: toneill@waikato.ac.nz", "keywords":[ "ORGANIC POLLUTANTS","MICROPLASTICS","K024A","CAPE HALLETT","HEAVY METALS","CONTAMINANTS","RADIOCARBON","HEAVY METALS CONCENTRATION","FIELD SURVEYS","LABORATORY","SOIL SAMPLER","ANTARCTICA" ] ,"creator": [ { "@type":"Person" ,"name": "O'Neill, T." ,"email": ["tanya.oneill@waikato.ac.nz"] ,"contactPoint": { "@type" : "PostalAddress" } } ] ,"distribution": [ { "@type":"DataDownload", "contentUrl": "https:\/\/antcat.antarcticanz.govt.nz\/geonetwork\/srv\/api\/records\/6b9a034f-89bc-4b1f-8f49-d287119077bf", "encodingFormat": "WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link", "name": "Distribution Metadata" }] ,"encodingFormat": [ ] ,"spatialCoverage": [ {"@type":"Place", "description": [ ], "geo": [ {"@type":"GeoShape", "box": "-72.40 170.00 -72.20 170.50" } ] }] ,"temporalCoverage": [ "2023-12-19/2023-12-30" ] ,"license": [ { "@type": "CreativeWork", "name": "This data set conforms to the CC BY Attribution License (https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/)" } ] , "citation": "O'Neill, T.
