Upland Sandpiper is one of many declining shorebird species (-4.6%/year in Alaska; Ziolkowski et al. 2023) which breed on military and adjacent lands in Alaska. Western and eastern populations are small and unstable, and the species is endangered at the state level in several eastern U.S. states (Houston et al. 2023). Though there has been considerable work with Upland Sandpipers in their core, central U.S. breeding areas, this is the first dedicated study of Upland Sandpipers in Alaska. The objectives are to resight, band, and track Upland Sandpiper at breeding sites in Delta Junction, AK and Donnelly Training Area (TA 501 & TA 511) to estimate vial rates, determine migratory connectivity, and determine important...

Shorebirds are a group of predominantly migratory birds that are declining at an alarming rate; many of them have declined by more than 50% since 1970 and 13 are of federal conservation concern. With staggeringly long, trans-hemispheric migrations along each of North America’s migratory flyways — distinct corridors that divide North America longitudinally — shorebirds breeding in the Arctic and sub-Arctic and wintering in Central and South America encounter a multitude of threats during their annual cycles. This study aims to track the fall migration of a suite of species from their breeding sites across Alaska to the southern extent of their respective ranges and address how differences in migratory connectivity...
