Data from: Hidden in plain sight: migration routes of the elusive Anadyr bar-tailed godwit revealed by satellite tracking

<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p> <p>Satellite&nbsp;and&nbsp;GPS tracking&nbsp;technology&nbsp;continues&nbsp;to reveal&nbsp;new migration patterns of birds which enables comparative studies of migration strategies and distributional&nbsp;information useful in conservation. Bar-tailed godwits in the East Asian&ndash;Australasian&nbsp;Flyway <em>Limosa lapponica baueri </em>and <em>L. l. menzbieri</em> are known for their long non-stop flights, however these populations are in steep decline. A third subspecies in this&nbsp;flyway, <em>L. l. anadyrensis</em>, breeds in the Anadyr River basin, Chukotka, Russia, and is&nbsp;morphologically distinct from <em>menzbieri</em> and <em>baueri</em> based on comparison of museum&nbsp;specimens&nbsp;collected from breeding areas. &nbsp;However, &nbsp;the &nbsp;non-breeding &nbsp;distribution,&nbsp;migration route and population size of <em>anadyrensis </em>are entirely unknown. Among 24&nbsp;female bar-tailed godwits tracked in 2015&ndash;2018 from northwest Australia, the main&nbsp;non-breeding area for <em>menzbieri</em>, two birds migrated further east than the rest to breed&nbsp;in the Anadyr River basin, i.e. they belonged to the <em>anadyrensis </em>subspecies. During&nbsp;pre-breeding migration, all birds staged in the Yellow Sea and then flew to the breeding&nbsp;grounds in the eastern Russian Arctic. After breeding, these two birds migrated southwestward to stage in Russia on the Kamchatka Peninsula and on Sakhalin Island en&nbsp;route to the Yellow Sea. This contrasts with the other 22 tracked godwits that followed&nbsp;the previously described route of <em>menzbieri</em>, i.e. they all migrated northwards to stage&nbsp;in the New Siberian Islands before turning south towards the Yellow Sea, and onwards&nbsp;to northwest Australia. Since the Kamchatka Peninsula was not used by any of the&nbsp;tracked <em>menzbieri</em> birds, the 4 500 godwits counted in the Khairusova&ndash;Belogolovaya&nbsp;estuary in western Kamchatka may well be <em>anadyrensis</em>. Comparing migration patterns&nbsp;across the three bar-tailed godwits subspecies, the migration strategy of <em>anadyrensis&nbsp;</em>lies&nbsp;between&nbsp;that of <em>menzbieri </em>and <em>baueri</em>. Future&nbsp;investigations&nbsp;combining&nbsp;migration tracks with genomic data could reveal how differences in migration routines are&nbsp;evolved and maintained.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Data set</strong></p> <p>Stopping sites and migration timing of satellite-tracked bar-tailed godwits in the East Asian-Australasian Flyway</p> <p>file name: Chan et al. 2022 BARG_Stops_Timing.xlsx</p> <p>The sheet &#39;stopping_sites&#39; contains stopping sites of bar-tailed godwits&nbsp;tracked with solar Argos satellite transmitters, and their respective arrival and departure times at each site.
