Combined effects of body posture and three-dimensional wing shape enable efficient gliding in flying lizards

Gliding animals change their body shape and posture while producing and modulating aerodynamic forces during flight. However, the combined effect of these different factors on aerodynamic force production, and ultimately the animal’s gliding ability, remains uncertain. Here, we quantified the time-v...
