    <p>Data from the experimental manipulation of food availability during early development and at recruitment for a long-lived seabird, the black-legged kittiwake Rissa tridactyla, breeding on Middleton Island, Alaska. Birds were born and raised in nests with supplemented food (“Fed”) or unsupplemented control nests (“Unfed”), and later recruited into either Fed or Unfed nests.</p> <p>---------</p> <p>Data have been collected by Scott Hatch.</p> <p>Data have been prepared and presented in the current form by Simone Vincenzi.</p> <p>----------</p> <p>Dataset:</p> <p>---------</p> <p>The dataset reports the variables and descriptors explained below relative to the nestling phase.</p> <p>----------</p> <p>Panel: Position in the colony</p> <p>Window: if present, identifies the location within the panel</p> <p>Feeding: feeding treatment at birth (Fed/Unfed)</p> <p>Rank: hatching order (A-, B-, C-chick, Singleton)</p> <p>Band: ID of the kittiwake</p> <p>Age: days since hatching</p> <p>Weight: in grams</p> <p>Wing: length of the wing in mm, if measured</p> <p>Year: year of birth</p> <p>Sex</p> <p> </p

    <p><sup>a</sup> Generalized linear mixed model (a binomial distribution) with likelihood ratio test was used. Trip identity and bird identity were included as fixed factor and random effect, respectively. See "Statistics" in the "<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0138850#sec002" target="_blank">Materials and Methods</a>".</p><p>Activity time budget of red-legged kittiwakes during foraging trips as revealed by GPS loggers and accelerometers.</p

    <p>Panel A shows a time series of depth, heave acceleration, body angle, dominant amplitude of the heave acceleration, dominant cycle of the heave acceleration, and behavioral categories determined by accelerometry (the colors correspond to each behavioral category). Panel B shows enlarged records from panel A.</p

    Locations of different types of behavior of red-legged kittiwakes as revealed by GPS loggers in relation to bathymetry.

    <p>The blue dots represent flight behavior, the open light blue circles represent non-flight behavior (including foraging and resting on water) that occurred in ocean basin (where bottom depth >1,000 m), the open yellow circles represent non-flight behavior that occurred on the shelf break (bottom depth: 200 to 1000 m), and the open red circles represent non-flight behavior that occurred on the shelf (bottom depth: 0 to 200 m). The open green circles represent bathing behavior which occurred on land.</p

    This file contains all the data used in the paper: physiological, morphological, and molecular data for Black-legged Kittiwake chicks in 2009 and 2011 from Middleton Island, Alaska. It includes chicks in supplementally fed nests and non-fed nests, chicks in experimentally enlarged nests (including fosters), and chicks in control nests of 2 natural chicks
