High Altitude Bird Migration at Temperate Latitudes: A Synoptic Perspective on Wind Assistance

At temperate latitudes the synoptic patterns of bird migration are strongly structured by the presence of cyclones and anticyclones, both in the horizontal and altitudinal dimensions. In certain synoptic conditions, birds may efficiently cross regions with opposing surface wind by choosing a higher...
