The evolutionary and behavioural ecology of migratory birds has received much theoretical empirical attention. We contribute to this field by contrasting the weather at departure stopover durations a long‐distance sandpiper prior initiating lengthy transoceanic vs. transcontinental flights potentially variable duration. Transoceanic provide few if any options. predicted that migrants should therefore be more selective energetically favourable have longer departing, using time as surrogate...
Abstract On the journey to wintering sites, most migratory birds alternate between flights and stopovers, where they rest refuel. In contrast time-minimization strategy commonly assumed drive pre-breeding migration, are rather expected follow an energy minimization during post-breeding migration. It is cumulative duration of stopovers that determines total requirements journey. Since migrating actually spend time at selection minimize amount or spent on migration likely operate effectiveness...
Abstract On the journey to wintering sites, migratory birds usually alternate between flights and stopovers where they rest refuel. Migration strategies are assumed differ according season: a time-minimization pre-breeding migration strategy towards breeding locations, an energy-minimization post-breeding ones. The duration of determines energy requirements total journey. Since migrating actually spend most time at stopovers, selection minimize amount or spent on is very likely operate...
