Gridded density estimates were produced by applying spatiotemporal modeling of at-sea survey data collected between 1975 and 2021 of seabird at-sea surveys available in the North Pacific Pelagic Seabird Database (NPPSD; Drew and Piatt 2015). We modeled joint dynamic species distributions of dark shearwaters (Ardenna spp., including A. grisea and A. tenuirostris), black-legged kittiwake (Rissa tridactyla), common murre (Uria aalge), pigeon guillemot (Cepphus columba), Kittlitz\u2019s murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris), marbled murrelet (B. marmoratus), horned puffin (Fratercula corniculata), and tufted puffin (F. cirrhata). Together these species compose 77% of all birds counted on surveys in lower Cook Inlet", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.ASC510.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P94NDFRI", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_ASC510", "keyword": ["Biota", "Species life history", "Biological informatics", "Animals/Vertebrates", "Population dynamics", "Marine ecosystems", "Wildlife", "Use/Feeding habitat", "Albatrosses/Petrels and Allies", "Relative abundance analysis", "USGS:ASC510", "Seabirds", "Coastal ecosystems", "Waders/Gulls/Auks and Allies", "Cook Inlet", "Birds", "Species distribution model", "Alaska", "Environment"], "modified": "2024-10-31T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-154.0283, 58.6769, -150.7764, 60.7377", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Gridded Seabird Density Estimates in Lower Cook Inlet, Alaska"}
