Investigating Population Dynamics of Red Knot Migration along the Georgia Coast through Mark/Recapture Analysis of Resights: 2015 Spring Season.

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
description: Expanding the Red Knot resight program to include other important staging areas along the Atlantic Coast is a stated priority of the USFWS Red Knot Spotlight Species Action Plan (2010) and the Red Knot Conservation Plan (2010). Our objectives in expanding the program into the Georgia Coast during spring migration are to: 1) estimate the population of Red Knots using the Georgia Coast as a spring stopover, 2) estimate spring stopover duration along the Georgia Coast, 3) determine the primary stopover locations and provide this information to local land managers, 4) contribute to the range-wide demographic studies and studies in migratory connectivity of the Red Knot in the Western Hemisphere, and 5) contribute data to the current listing process initiated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.; abstract: Expanding the Red Knot resight program to include other important staging areas along the Atlantic Coast is a stated priority of the USFWS Red Knot Spotlight Species Action Plan (2010) and the Red Knot Conservation Plan (2010).
