Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) is the abundant winter visitor in South Korea. Mallard migrates long distances between Russian Siberia and Korea. This species prefers a rice paddy area as their winter habitat. We captured birds using cannon-net, and attached the GPS-Mobile phone based Telemetry(WT-200) on Seven Mallards in the winter of 2011~2013. We were monitored wintering home-range and movement distance. We analyzed the tracking location data using ArcGIS 9.0 and calculated Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) and Minimum Convex Polygon (MCP). The average home-range in the wintering ground by MCP was 118.8 ㎢(SD=70.1, n=7)and the maximum home-rang was 221.8 ㎢ and the minimum was 27.7 ㎢. Extents of home-range by KDE were 60.0 ㎢(KDE 90%), 23.0 ㎢(KDE 70%) and 11.6 ㎢(KDE 50%). Mallard moved an average of 19.4 ㎞ from start 야생동물위치추적기(WT-200)를 이용한 청둥오리의 이동거리 및 행동권 연구
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
