VHF Triangulation Tracking Data for Black Brant (Branta bernicla nigricans) in Waters Adjacent to Izembek National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska
This data package contains estimated location data from triangulation tracking of VHF transmitters on 93 Black Brant at Izembek National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska, during fall 1987-1990. The transmitters were attached to second year and older Brant on breeding colonies in Alaska, northwestern Canada, and northeastern Russia. The data include: a deployment attributes file with details of each brant at the time of capture, the raw bearing data, and location estimates from triangulation.
