Influence of temperature and rainfall on the timing of the spring migration of Eurasian Wren Troglodytes troglodytes through the southern Baltic coast

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal
Climate factors shape the spring phenology of migrant birds in Europe. We examined carry-over effects of temperature and rainfall in four regions of Europe on the spring migration timing of a medium-distance migrant, Eurasian Wren, at the southern Baltic

Beyond Earth: Resilience of Quasi‐2D Perovskite Solar Cells in Space

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In the article (DOI: 10.1002/adma.202520433), Christoph Putz and co‐workers demonstrate rigid quasi‐2D perovskite solar cells operating in low Earth orbit, delivering stable power for more than 100 days under real‐space conditions. In‐orbit performance is correlated with extensive ground‐based thermal and proton‐irradiation studies on rigid and ...

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.

Endogenous timing factors in bird migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
Several species of warbler birds were observed in an effort to determine what initiates and terminates migration. Environmental and endogenous timing mechanisms were analyzed.

Bird migration: Flying high to avoid overheating?

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
Acts of flight have always baffled humans. Recent tracking studies of birds only add to the awe and mystery. A new study shows that migrating great snipes fly high - over two kilometres high - during the day and lower at night. Why?

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Associations of Synoptic Weather Conditions With Nocturnal Bird Migration Over the North Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The southern North Sea is part of an important flyway for nocturnal bird migration, but is also risky as it stretches over a large surface of water. Selecting nights with suitable weather conditions for migration can be critical for a bird’s survival ...

High individual repeatability of the migratory behaviour of a long-distance migratory seabird

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2022
Background Understanding the evolution of migration requires knowledge of the patterns, sources, and consequences of variation in migratory behaviour, a need exacerbated by the fact that many migratory species show rapid population declines and require ...

(Micro)evolutionary changes and the evolutionary potential of bird migration

open access: yes, 2018
Seasonal migration is the yearly long-distance movement of individuals between their breeding and wintering grounds. Individuals from nearly every animal group exhibit this behavior, but probably the most iconic migration is carried out by birds, from ...
