Goose Migration and Egg Nutrient Allocation, Colville River Delta, Alaska, 2011–2015

These data are in nine tables relating to three species of arctic breeding geese studied on the Colville River Delta, Alaska, 2011-2014. The tables provide: 1-2) spring migration and arrival dates, 3) pre-nesting intervals, 4) nest initiation dates, 5) goose esophageal contents, 6) egg stable isotope ratios, 7) goose tissue stable isotope ratios, 8) forage plant stable isotope ratios, and 9) egg endogenous reserve estimates.
