Stopover ecology of migrating birds in Indiana

2020
Billions of birds migrate annually between breeding and wintering habitats, following transient resources. Though a majority of time is spent in breeding and wintering habitats, habitats used during the migratory periods are especially important for migrating birds.

Biology of landbird migrants: a stopover perspective

The Wilson Journal of Ornithology, 2018
ABSTRACT This perspective on the stopover biology of migratory landbirds is organized around the response of migrants to challenges that can arise during stopover and how events during stopover are interconnected with other phases of the annual cycle.

Optimal stopover decisions of migrating birds under variable stopover quality: model predictions and the field data.

Zhurnal obshchei biologii, 2004
Dataset on departure fuel loads, stopover length and fuel deposition rate of the European robins Erithacus rubecula during their migration in the Baltic area is presented. We test these empirical data against the predictions of an optimal migration model assuming that robins minimize time spent on migration, and that fuel deposition rate varies ...

Stopovers at the Azores, Portugal and Arzila

1992
After his caravel had run aground on 24 December 1492, Colon-Zarco set sail for home from the ‘Gulf of Arrows’ in the Antilles on 16 January 1493. He sailed on the ‘Nina’ and Martin Alonso Pinzon commanded the Tinta’. He set an extraordinary course which Morison1 classified as a crass mistake, as he pointed his prow northward in the direction of the ...

Migratory Flights and Stopovers: Organisation of Migration

2012
In this chapter I summarise the contents of this monograph and propose the model that four main groups of factors influence the decision to take off: current fuel stores, fuel deposition rate at a given stopover site, weather factors (mainly wind assistance) and geographic position relative to the optimal rate of migration.
