Abstract
Emperor penguins (*Aptenodytes forsteri*) are under increasing environmental pressure, and monitoring their colony size and population trends primarily relies on satellite imagery. This study develops a phenological model to predict breeding pairs and fledging chicks, correcting for colony occupancy variability. The model extrapolates occupancy from sparse data, useful for monitoring remotely sensed animal colonies.
