Project Description

Project Title: Telemetry data of a Lesser Scaup positive for 2.3.4.4 Highly Pathogenic H5N1

Summary:

Wild lesser scaup (Aythya affinis) from the Chesapeake Bay, captured and implanted with satellite transmitters for a separate ecology study, were opportunistically sampled for avian influenza. These data detail the virological sampling results, obtained post release, which include a single positive for clade 2.3.4.4 H5N1 virus of the A/goose/Guangdong/1/1996 (Gs/GD) H5N1 lineage of highly pathogenic IAV. These data also include the movements of the infected bird from release until death as well as four conspecifics marked and released concurrent with the HPAI positive bird. These data support a paired publication.

This dataset was extracted from the USGS Science Data Catalog (SDC). A full metadata record is included.
