This dataset comprises GPS location analyzed in Lamb et al. (2017): 165,562 deployed GPS locations, for 81 Eastern brown pelicans (25 in Florida, 27 in Louisiana, and 29 in Texas) tracked from 2013-04-24 to 2016-02-05. Funding for this study was provided by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and U.S. Geological Survey (Interagency Agreement no. M12PG00014). The Eastern Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis carolinensis) is a large-bodied seabird that nests in colonies of 10 to upwards of 5,000 pairs, on nearshore barrier islands in subtropical and tropical North American waters. It breeds between March and August, laying 2–3 eggs and raising 1–2 chicks per year. The species is facultatively migratory during...

Funding for this study was provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (Cooperative Agreement nos. G12AC20329, G15AC00264) and the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (Grant nos. 2009094, 20100899). This study examines drivers of American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) population dynamics in South Carolina. Study objectives are to (1) estimate demographic parameters and abundance from marked alligators and nightlight surveys in an integrated population modeling framework, (2) optimize nightlight survey monitoring design to maximize abundance estimate accuracy and precision and minimize costs, (3) identify an optimal harvest strategy to maintain population stability and limit changes to size class...

The datasets stored in this folder summarize polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) reference data, and values collected from Brown Pelican nestlings and breeding adults from 2013-2015 in the Northern Gulf of Mexico at 9 breeding colonies from Texas to the Florida Panhandle. Evaluated PAH included 1,3-dimethylnaphthalene, 1,5-dimethylnaphthalene, 1-methylfluorene, 2,3,5-trimethylnaphthalene, 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene, 2-methylnaphthalene, 3-methylphenanthrene, 9-methylphenanthrene, Acenaphthalene, Acenapthene, Anthracene, Benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, Benzo(g,h,i)perylene, Benzo(k)fluoranthene, Chrysene, Dibenz(a,h)anthracene, Fluoranthene, Fluorene, Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, Naphthalene,...
