Fields
2-6 - Taxonomic information
Common and scientific names from source documents may have been changed to
reflect the most recent taxonomic information available. All taxonomy for
avian species is based on The American Ornithologists' Union Checklist of
North American Birds (7th Edition, 1998, and the 42nd and 43rd Supplements to
the Checklist, as published in The Auk 117: 847-858, 2000; 119:897-906).
Taxonomic information for other species is based on the federal governments
Integrated Taxonomic Information System (http://www.itis.usda.gov/access.html).
Field 2 - Common name for species.
Field 3 - Genus/species for each animal.
Field 4 - Taxonomic family of species
Field 5 - Taxonomic order of species
Field 6 - Taxonomic class of species (Aves, Reptilia, Amphibia,
or Mammalia)
Fields 7 and 8 - Initiation Year (Year
From) and Completion Year (Year To) during which the sample in the record was
collected. The format for this field is "YYYY" (e.g., 1998). If
this field is blank, the information could not be found in the report.
Field 9 - Season, Month or Day during which the sample was collected (Date). If this field is blank, the
information could not be found in the report.
Field 10 - The "specific" name of the location (e.g.,
Island
,
Wildlife Refuge, City, Town, County) where the sample was collected.
Occasionally, multiple sites have the identical specific name (e.g.,
Maine
has 19 sites named
Black
Island
).
An asterisk denotes that a specific location is not known, and the State or
Province Capital, County Seat or other locations have been assigned as the
collection site. If a vague state or province location is given, the
coordinates for the state or province capital are used for geo-referencing
(Atlantic Flyway*). If only a county within the state or province is given
(e.g.,
Carroll County
,
MD
) and specific coordinates are not
given, the county name would appear in this field (i.e., Carroll Co.*) and
coordinates for the County Seat would appear in Fields 14 and 15. If a county
within the state or province and specific coordinates are given in the
source, the county name would appear in this field (i.e.,
Carroll
County
)
and the coordinates given would appear in Fields 14 and 15.
Field 11 - The State or Province (using a
two letter abbreviation) from which the sample was collected.
Field 12 - The Estuary from which the sample was collected.
Field 13 - Hydrologic Unit Cataloguing (HUC) Code contains the USGS Watershed code
Fields 14 and 15 - The latitude and longitude of the
collection site. When the coordinates are not reported in the source
information, a desk top mapping program (DeLorme MapExpert version 2.0) and/or the USGS Geographic Names
Information System (http://geonames.usgs.gov/gnishome.html) or the Canadian
Geographical Names website (http://geonames.nrcan.gc.ca/index_e.php) was employed to
approximate the site coordinates.
Field 16 - Sample matrix (e.g.,
carcass, egg, feather, liver) that was analyzed.
Field 17 - Sample size.
Fields 18-31 - Organochlorine contaminant
concentration. Where possible, organochlorine contaminant concentrations were reported in ug/g in
order to facilitate database searches.
