Tracking Data for Red-Faced Cormorants (Phalacrocorax urile)
August 21, 2020
This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Red-faced Cormorants, a seabird species that is found only in the North Pacific Ocean, breeding and wintering from southern Alaska and throughout the Aleutian Islands to Far Eastern Russia.
Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Red-faced Cormorants (Phalacrocorax urile) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data collected from Argos satellite transmitters.
Child Item 2: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Red-faced Cormorants (Phalacrocorax urile) - 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.

Migration and wintering sites of Pelagic Cormorants determined by satellite telemetry
Factors affecting winter survival may be key determinants of status and population trends of seabirds, but connections between breeding sites and wintering areas of most populations are poorly known. Pelagic Cormorants (Phalacrocorax pelagicus; N= 6) surgically implanted with satellite transmitters migrated from a breeding colony on Middleton Island, northern Gulf of Alaska, to wintering...
