Sample size refers to the number of birds included in the analyses. Species include bar-headed goose (BHGO), Eurasian teal (EUTE), Eurasian wigeon (EUWI), falcated teal (FATE), gadwall (GADW), garganey (GARG), northern shoveler (NOSH), northern pintail (NOPI), ruddy shelducks (RUSH), swan goose (SWGO), whistling swan (WHSW). ^aIndividual BHGO UDs from these three sites were grouped together in the single-species flyway. ^bIndividual GARG UDs from these two sites were grouped together in the multi-species flyway. ^cIndividual NOPI UDs from these two sites were grouped together in the multi-species flyway. ^dIndividual RUSH UDs from these three sites were grouped together in the population-level and multi-species flyways. *Battery powered, collar-mounted PTTs.
