The complete mitochondrial genome of Aquila nipalensis and its phylogenetic position [PDF]
Mitochondrial genome sequences are valuable resources for systematics and conservation biology studies. In this paper, we present the complete mitogenome of Aquila nipalensis which was 18,450 bp in length.

Wing tucks are a response to atmospheric turbulence in the soaring flight of the steppe eagle Aquila nipalensis. [PDF]
Turbulent atmospheric conditions represent a challenge to stable flight in soaring birds, which are often seen to drop their wings in a transient motion that we call a tuck. Here, we investigate the mechanics, occurrence and causation of wing tucking in a captive steppe eagle Aquila nipalensis , using ground-based ...

Automatic aeroelastic devices in the wings of a steppe eagleAquila nipalensis [PDF]
SUMMARYHere we analyse aeroelastic devices in the wings of a steppe eagle Aquila nipalensis during manoeuvres. Chaotic deflections of the upperwing coverts observed using video cameras carried by the bird (50 frames s–1) indicate trailing-edge separation but attached flow near the leading edge during flapping and gust response, and completely stalled ...

Factors Affecting Habitat Selection of Endangered Steppe Eagle (Aquila nipalensis) in Pakistan: Implications for Raptors Conservation [PDF]
The steppe eagle (Aquila nipalensis) is an endangered migratory raptor species that migrates in winter to Pakistan and neighbouring countries. In Pakistan, the species migrate at the end of autumn and utilise different habitats across the country. Very little information is available about the species’ population status, distribution, and factors ...

Modeling and Identification of Steppe Eagle (Aquila Nipalensis) Dynamics
We present some initial findings of a long-term project to identify the flight dynamics of large birds of prey, during free-flight outdoors. This paper outlines our methods for dealing with the particular challenges a project of this nature provides, and some preliminary results outlining the flight characteristics of soaring flight, and providing ...
