Southern Beaufort Sea Polar Bear Hemoglobin A1c Data
This dataset is one table with demographic, morphometric, and blood analyte measurements from whole blood and serum samples taken from a subset of polar bears sampled in Alaska's southern Beaufort Sea during 1989-2012. The measured blood analytes include: blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose, total protein, hemoglobin, red blood cell count, packed cell volume, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c).
