Fig 1.
Breeding ranges of the 5 Dunlin subspecies that occur in the North Pacific, and the location of each field site (a–h) where light-level geolocators were deployed. See Table 1 for site info. The pacifica subspecies does not migrate and winter along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway and is not discussed in this paper.

Location, subspecies, and number of Dunlin equipped and later recaptured with light-level geolocators at 8 field sites along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway.
Site locations are in Fig 1.

South migration characteristics for each subspecies of Dunlin on the East Asian-Australasian Flyway.
Reported is the median value and interquartile range.

Migratory network depicting south migration movements made by Dunlin subspecies along the East Asian–Australasian Flyway, and (D) south migration stationary estimates color-coded by flyway region.
Network nodes and edges are weighted by the proportion of individuals that stopped in each flyway region, and the proportion that migrated between flyway regions, respectively.
Fig 3.
The proportion of each Dunlin subspecies that occurred in each flyway region along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway by day of year.
See Fig 2 for the location of each region.
