USGS Alaska Science Center Adult Shorebird Morphological Measurement Data This dataset consists of three tables, 1) taxonomy, 2) contributors, and 3) shorebird morphological measurements collected from various species captured from 1977-2021. In addition, photographs of plumage patterns are available for several species. Researchers with the U.S. Geological Survey - Alaska Science Center, along with collaborators from many government agencies and research institutions, have studied shorebirds at numerous sites across North America, the Pacific Ocean, Australia, and New Zealand. This release includes over 10,000 observations relating to 35 shorebird species. Tags: Age estimation methods, Alaska, Alaska Peninsula, Angyoyaravak Bay, Animal morphology, All tags...
