By quantifying the economic value of ecosystem services (ES) provided across a species\u2019 range and ecological data on a species\u2019 habitat dependence, we estimate spatial subsidies\u2013how different regions support ES provided by a species across its range. We illustrate this method for migratory Northern Pintail ducks in North America. Pintails support over $101 million annually in recreational hunting and viewing and subsistence hunting in the U.S. and Canada. Pintail breeding regions provide nearly $30 million in subsidies to wintering regions, with the \u201cPrairie Pothole\u201d region supplying over $24 million in annual benefits to other regions. This information can be used to inform conservation funding allocation among migratory regions and nations on which the pintail depends. We thus illustrate a transferrable method to quantify migratory species-derived ES and provide information to aid in their transboundary conservation.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/F7Q23ZFC", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5a13363de4b09fc93dce650e.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5a13363de4b09fc93dce650e", "keyword": ["Canada", "Migration", "Northern pintail duck", "Spatial subsidies", "Species conservation", "Telecoupling", "Transborder conservation", "USGS:5a13363de4b09fc93dce650e", "United States"], "modified": "2020-08-20T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-178.217600, 25.845555, -81.187331, 72.002526", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Data release for Ecosystem service flows from a migratory species: spatial subsidies of the northern pintail"}
