Data for: Combining stable isotopes, trace elements, and distribution models to assess the geographic origins of migratory bats

The expansion of industrial-scale wind-energy facilities has increased the production of low-carbon emission energy but has also resulted in mortality of wildlife, including migratory bats. Management decisions can be limited by a lack of understanding of the geographic impact of bats killed at wind-energy facilities. Several studies have leveraged stable hydrogen isotope ratios (δ2H) of bat fur to illuminate this issue but are limited in the precision of conclusion because δ2H values vary primarily across latitudinal and elevational bands. One approach to increase the precision of geographic assignment is to combine independent inferences about spatial location from additional biomarkers and other related information. To test this possibility, we assigned known-origin individuals of three bat species commonly killed at on-shore wind-energy facilities in North America (Lasiurus borealis, L. cinereus, and Lasionycteris noctivagans) to probable origin using δ2H values, trace element conce..., ,
