Tracking Data for Northern Pintails (Anas acuta)
September 17, 2019
This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Northern Pintails, a duck species that, in Alaska, nests throughout the state and in adjacent regions of Russia and Canada.
Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Northern Pintails (Anas acuta) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data collected from Argos satellite transmitters.
Child Item 2: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Northern Pintails (Anas acuta) - 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.

Satellite‐tracking of Northern Pintail Anas acuta during outbreaks of the H5N1 virus in Japan: Implications for virus spread
We fitted Northern Pintail Anas acuta in Japan with satellite transmitters and monitored their spring migration movements relative to locations where the highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus was detected in Whooper Swans Cygnus cygnus in 2008. Pintails were assumed not to be infected with the H5N1 virus at the time they were marked because capture occurred between 2 and 5 months before rep
