Fig. 3

Time series of adult female annual survival of the ten waterfowl taxa for which survival did not vary by flyway of release. Annual survival of birds fitted with both bands and GPS tags is represented by gold and that of birds fitted only with a metal leg band is represented by green. GSGO = greater snow goose, GWFG = greater white-fronted goose, BLBR = black brant, WODU = wood duck, CITE = cinnamon teal, GADW = gadwall, AMWI = American wigeon, ABDU = American black duck, NOPI = northern pintail, and LESC = lesser scaup. Tick marks on the x-axis indicate years during which GPS tags were deployed on birds
