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,...

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 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 nonbreeding, with some individuals remaining resident and others leaving breeding areas. Pelicans forage in near- and offshore waters and capture schooling fish by plunge-diving. This dataset summarizes blood analyte 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...

The datasets stored in this folder summarize health data for Brown Pelican nestlings and breeding adults from 2013-2016 in the Northern Gulf of Mexico at 9 breeding colonies from Texas to the Florida Panhandle. Data include values of blood analyte, and concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in blood and feather samples.

This dataset contains locations acquired from GPS-tagged Brown Pelicans in the South Atlantic Bight. Locations correspond to the movements of pelicans tracked for >1 reproductive attempt, and include only locations from May - July of each year, with the goal of identifying likely nest locations using GPS data.
This dataset contains concentrations of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) measured in the eggs of brown pelicans nesting near Charleston, SC, USA, as well as movements of brown pelicans tracked with GPS-Platform Terminal transmitters. In total, 36 eggs were measured from three breeding colonies of brown pelicans for the presence of 24 PFAS analytes using LC-MS/MS. Concentrations were then analyzed for differences between colonies based on urban habitat use and distance from Charleston.

The datasets stored in this folder summarize reproductive data for Brown Pelicans nesting on Gaillard and Cat Islands, Alabama, in 2017 and 2018. Data include nest and nestling survival, nest site characteristics, environmental covariates, and temperatures recorded inside nests.
