Movement Data for Migrating Geese Over the Northeast Pacific Ocean, 2018-2021

This dataset consists of one table with a record (row) for each goose location and columns containing location information and covariates. The dataset was used in an analysis of altitude selection and flight propensity in an accompanying paper (Weiser et al. 2024) and is being provided here to allow replication of that analysis. Goose locations (latitude, longitude, and altitude) were collected with GPS tags and represent three subspecies: Pacific Greater White-fronted Goose, Tule Greater White-fronted Goose, and Lesser Snow Goose. Covariates include weather information from ERA5 (Hersbach et al. 2022). In addition to the "used" locations (altitudes at which birds were recorded), the dataset also includes "available"...

BLM REA NOS 2012 Terrestrial Fine Filter Figures H56 to H62

Current modeled distribution of greater white-fronted goose (Anser albifrons) in the North Slope study area from density estimates provided by Platte, USFWS. Change in summer temperature (JJA) within the current modeled distribution of the greater white-fronted goose. Distribution of greater white-fronted goose intersected with modeled distribution of thermokarst predisposition. Current, 2040 medium-development scenario, and 2040 high-development scenario landscape condition within the current distribution of greater white-fronted goose in the North Slope study area. These data are provided by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) "as is" and may contain errors or omissions. The User assumes the entire risk associated...
