Data

This dataset includes details of 2,745 tracking devices (hereafter "trackers") deployed on shorebirds, including traits of the tags, traits of the shorebirds, and locations of the field sites. The dataset was used in the accompanying paper to evaluate how factors affected "success" of each tag package (tracker + attachment to the bird), where "success" was defined as whether the tag...

This data release provides a vector geospatial shapefile of river and creek segments within Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) habitat in the Noatak River drainage (DeCicco 1985) classified for metal impairment between 1986 and 2024. The impairment classifications were based on visual inspection of Landsat and Sentinel satellite imagery. Also provided are the satellite images (as raster...

This dataset provides information on aquatic invertebrate composition from ponds (n = 16; surface area 0.02 km2) and lakes (n =16, surface area > 0.10 km2) on the central Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska. Ponds and lakes were selected for sampling as part of a larger study of Arctic water body food webs. Details on the study area and findings are published in Laske et al. 2018 and Laske et...

This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Marbled murrelets tagged in Washington state and Alaska, 2008 and 2013. Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Marbled Murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data collected from Argos satellite transmitters. Child Item 2: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Marbled Murrelets...

This data package contains 1) field data and 2) predicted distributions of three species of boreal-nesting birds in interior Alaska: Lesser Yellowlegs (Tringa flavipes), Olive-sided Flycatcher (Contopus cooperi), and Rusty Blackbird (Euphagus carolinus). The data are compiled from several monitoring programs: Alaska Landbird Monitoring Survey, Alaska Off-road Point-count Program, Susitna...

This data release contains one table with gene transcription results from muscle samples collected from fish occupying freshwater in various Alaskan watersheds. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) results from fish included in this data release are published in a separate data release available at https://doi.org/10.5066/P13ZYKWR.

This data release includes one table of nuclear microsatellite genotypes and mitochondrial DNA haplotypes from the cytochrome b region in King Eider. This information was used to determine levels of population genetic differentiation among breeding and wintering sites of King Eiders (Somateria fischeri).

These data are in four tables relating to complete blood count (CBC), biochemistry, blood gas analysis, corticosterone, serum protein electrophoresis, and sample attribute data of adult Pacific (Gavia pacifica) and Red-throated Loons (G. stellata) breeding in northern Alaska in 2023.

These data are in one table relating to the selenium concentration (μg/g) in whole blood of adult female emperor geese (Anser canagicus) sampled on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska in June 2017.

This data set provides polar bear microsatellite genotypes derived from twenty loci (CPH9, CXX20, CXX110, CXX173, G1A, G10B, G10C, G1D, G10H, G10J, G10L, G10M, G10P, G10U, G10X, MU50, MU51, MU59, MSUT2, 145P07). Blood, buccal swab, skin, and hair samples for microsatellite genetic analysis were collected from polar bears from the Southern Beaufort Sea between 1981 and 2023. Blood, buccal...

This dataset provides sample data and NCBI accession information for genomic sequencing of Gray-headed Chickadee and Boreal Chickadee from North America and Russia.

This data release contains one table of genetic data (mitochondrial haplotypes and nuclear microsatellite genotypes) used to evaluate utility of two morphological measures (culmen length and plumage color) to correctly identify groups of hunter-harvested dusky (Branta canadensis occidentalis) and dusky-like Canada geese on wintering grounds within the Pacific Flyway of North America...
