Abstract

This paper presents a wireless sensor network being used for the study of Leach's storm petrel on Great Duck Island, Maine, USA. The petrel-watching apparatus consists of a distributed system of devices called 'motes', each having the dual functions of data collection and communication. For the former role, the mote contains application-specific sensors and signal-processing hardware; for the latter, the mote has a low-power radio transceiver. When the motes are networked together, each simultaneously collects data from its immediate surroundings and passes its own and other motes' data through the network.
