Journal ArticleDOI
Long-distance migration: evolution and determinants
TL;DR: From this expos it is clear that research on migration warrants a multitude of techniques and approaches for a complete as possible understanding of a very complex evolutionary syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimum fuel loads in migratory birds: distinguishing between time and energy minimization
TL;DR: The total energy cost of migration is roughly divided between flight and stopover as 1:2, probably with a relatively longer stopover time in larger species and strong selection pressures to optimize the fuel accumulation strategies during stopover episodes are expected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leading-edge vortex improves lift in slow-flying bats.
Florian T. Muijres,L. C. Johansson,R. Barfield,Marta Wolf,Geoffrey R. Spedding,Anders Hedenström +5 more
TL;DR: Using digital particle image velocimetry, it is shown that a small nectar-feeding bat is able to increase lift by as much as 40% using attached leading-edge vortices during slow forward flight, resulting in a maximum lift coefficient of 4.8.
Journal ArticleDOI
Challenging claims in the study of migratory birds and climate change

TL;DR: A proper integration across biological disciplines seems essential for the field's transition from affirming patterns to understanding mechanisms and making robust predictions regarding future consequences of shifting phenologies.
