DATASETS FOR: A keystone avian predator faces elevated energy expenditure in a warming Arctic
Here, we provide two datasets from astudy in whichwe used triaxial accelerometers(Axy 4, Technosmart, 3g)to collect detailed behavioral records from little auks ( Alle alle ) at Ukaleqarteq (UK), East Greenland(70°44′N, 21°35′W) andHornsund (HS) (77°00′N, 15°33′E;Svalbard archipelago), during the ch...
