    • Tracking Data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers (Calidris subruficollis)

    Metadata Updated: September 23, 2024

    This data package includes 2 child items with tracking data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers, a shorebird species that breeds only in Arctic Alaska and Canada, spending the winter in the grasslands of Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina after a lengthy migration. Child Item 1: "Argos and GPS Satellite Tracking Data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers (Calidris subruficollis) - Processed Data" - Quality-controlled data collected from Argos and Argos-linked GPS satellite transmitters. Child Item 2: "Argos and GPS Satellite Tracking Data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers (Calidris subruficollis) - Raw Data" - All raw data collected from Argos and Argos-linked GPS satellite transmitters, provided for completeness of the archive. The quality-controlled, "Argos GPS Processed Data" (Child Item 1) are better suited for most analytical purposes.
