This identifier can be a ring number, a name, the same as the associated tag ID, etc. If the data owner does not provide an Animal ID, an internal Movebank animal identifier may sometimes be shown. example: 91876A, Gary same as: individual-local-identifier animal life stage: The age class or life stage of the animal at the beginning of the deployment. Can be years or months of age or terms such as "adult", "subadult" and "juvenile". Units should be defined in the values (e.g. "2 years"). example: juvenile, adult units: Any units should be defined in the remarks. animal reproductive condition: The reproductive condition of the animal at the beginning of the deployment. example: non-reproductive, pregnant attachment type: The way a tag is attached to an animal.

If the data owner does not provide a Deployment ID, an internal Movebank deployment identifier may sometimes be shown. example: Jane-Tag42 duty cycle: Remarks associated with the duty cycle of a tag during the deployment, describing the times it is on/off and the frequency at which it transmits or records data. example: it turns off during the night units: Any units should be defined in the remarks. THIS DATASET: See "File headers for the Migrate Technology loggers" below for more information. event ID: An identifier for the set of information associated with each record or event in a data set. A unique event ID is assigned to every time-location or other time-measurement record in Movebank. example: 6340565 units: none geolocator calibration: A description of how solar geolocators were calibrated. example: We calibrated the geolocators while deployed on the animals over a two-week period in their breeding site (< 5 km^2).

THIS DATASET: Entries contain four values separated by ":", reporting the number of "wet" recordings made during each hour of the 4-hour interval ending with the corresponding timestamp, with a maximum of 14 for each hour. The first value is for hour 1 of 4; the second value is for hour 2 of 4; the third value is for hour 3 of 4; and the fourth value is for the hour just prior to the timestamp. Conductivity values >63 were used to define "wet", intended to identify saltwater but not freshwater. Conductivity was measured every 30 sec. See "File headers for the Migrate Technology loggers" below for more information. taxon: The scientific name of the species on which the tag was deployed, as defined by the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS, www.itis.gov). If the species name can not be provided, this should be the lowest level taxonomic rank that can be determined and that is used in the ITIS taxonomy. Additional information can be provided using the term taxon detail. example: Buteo swainsoni same as: species, animal taxon, individual taxon canonical name temperature max: The minimum temperature measured during the measurement interval. example: 12.4 units: degrees Celsius temperature min: The maximum temperature measured during the measurement interval. example: 7.4 units: degrees Celsius timestamp: The date and time a sensor measurement was taken. example: 2008-08-14 18:31:00.000 format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.sss units: UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) or GPS time, which is a few leap seconds different from UTC visible: Determines whether an event is visible on the Movebank Search map. Values are calculated automatically, with FALSE indicating that the event has been marked as an outlier by manually marked outlier or algorithm marked outlier. Allowed values are TRUE or FALSE. ----------- File headers for the Migrate Technology loggers ***************************************************** Migrate Technology Ltd logger Type: 4.12.4, current settings: Approx 0.5'C resolution.
