Description

Bar-tailed godwits were captured by cannon netting at two non-breeding sites in northwest Australia: at the northern beaches of Roebuck Bay (17.98°S, 122.35°E) in October 2014 and 2015 and February 2017 and at the central and northern portions of Eighty Mile Beach (19.40°S, 121.27°E), in February 2017. Stopping sites in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway (EAAF) (including ‘staging sites’, i.e. sites where migrating birds make long stops, and ‘stopover sites’ where birds make short stops), were extracted by first clustering consecutive points where rate of movement was under 5 km h−1 and then grouping all clusters within 20 km of each other. Stopping sites data accessed from cited paper on 2022-12-01. There are three other datasets in OBIS linked to the East Asian–Australasian Flyway (EAAF).
