Year-round tracking of small trans-Saharan migrants using light-level geolocators. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Since 1899 ringing (or banding) remained the most important source of information about migration routes, stopover sites and wintering grounds for birds that are too small to carry satellite-based tracking systems. Despite the large quantity of migrating

Oxidative stress in endurance flight: an unconsidered factor in bird migration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2014
Migrating birds perform extraordinary endurance flights, up to 200 h non-stop, at a very high metabolic rate and while fasting. Such an intense and prolonged physical activity is normally associated with an increased production of reactive oxygen and ...

Why is timing of bird migration advancing when individuals are not? [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2014
Recent advances in spring arrival dates have been reported in many migratory species but the mechanism driving these advances is unknown. As population declines are most widely reported in species that are not advancing migration, there is an urgent need
