Tracking Data for Northern Fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis)
November 2, 2020
This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Northern Fulmars, a seabird species that breeds throughout northern ocean regions and spends the winter at-sea in the northern hemisphere.
Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Northern Fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data collected from Argos satellite transmitters.
Child Item 2: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Northern Fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) - Raw Data" -- All raw data collected from Argos satellite transmitters, provided for completeness of the archive. The quality-controlled, "Argos Processed Data" (Child Item 1) are better suited for most analytical purposes.

Individual and colony-specific wintering areas of Pacific northern fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis)
Seabird mortality associated with longline fishing in the eastern Bering Sea occurs mainly from September to May, with northern fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) comprising the majority (60%) of the bycatch. Along the west coast of North America, winter dieoffs of fulmars may be increasing in frequency and magnitude, the most severe on record being a wreck that peaked in October-November 2003. We deplo
