    • Tracking Data for Bar-tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica)

    Metadata Updated: October 3, 2024

    This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Bar-tailed Godwits. One of the subspecies, Limosa lapponica baueri, nests in Alaska and spends the nonbreeding season in New Zealand and eastern Australia whereas L.l.menzbieri nests in Siberia and spends the nonbreeding season in western Australia. Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Bar-tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data collected from Argos satellite transmitters. Child Item 2: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Bar-tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica) - Raw Data" -- All raw data collected from Argos satellite transmitters, provided for completeness of the archive. The quality-controlled, "Argos Processed Data" (Child Item 1) are better suited for most analytical purposes.
