This study uses eagle flight data to assess how high-resolution weather models capture atmospheric dynamics, revealing gaps in thermal resolution and the need for better model accuracy.

This study investigates why golden eagle juveniles delay emigration despite acquiring flight skills, finding that external factors, not skill mastery, primarily influence the timing of independence.

The paper examines perceived and observed biases in movement ecology through surveys and author affiliation analysis, identifying geographic and demographic disparities in research participation.

This study shows golden eagles in the Alps use gravity waves for soaring, contributing to 19% of their flight segments and becoming primary updraught sources in winter.

The study shows that the realized energy landscape for golden eagles changes with age, with younger eagles having higher energy costs and smaller flyable areas.

This study shows that vultures use social information to find thermal updrafts, especially in poor flight conditions, with lower-ranked individuals less likely to follow social cues.
