Emperor Goose (Anser canagicus) Nest Visit, Fate, and Dispersal Distances from the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska, 2000-2017
October 24, 2024
These data are in two tables: 1) table relating to emperor goose nest visit, nest fate, and nest dispersal distances on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta in Alaska, 2000-2017; 2) table with means and standard deviations for posterior distributions of predicted nest-age and year specific daily nest survival probabilities for emperor geese derived from estimates reported by Thompson et al. (2023) for the Manokinak River study area. These parameters were used as informative prior distributions in the modeling process. The code used to conduct the analyses is also included as a text file.

Nest-site fidelity is a common strategy in birds and is believed to be adaptive due to familiarity with local conditions. Returning to previously successful nest sites (i.e., the win-stay lose-switch strategy) may be beneficial when habitat quality is spatially variable and temporally predictable; however, changes in environmental conditions may constrain dispersal decisions despite...
