• Towards a new understanding of migration timing: slower spring than autumn migration in geese reflects different decision rules for stopover use and departure (2016, background): “Such behaviour indicates that the birds might have experienced an ecological barrier (Åkesson and Hedenström 2007, Klaassen et al. 2008, Kölzsch et al. 2015), even if this barrier between northern Russia and Poland is likely less driven by the classically considered ecological barrier factors (food…”
• Protected species use of a coastal marine migratory corridor connecting marine protected areas (2014, background): “This phenomenon is attributed to the presence of fixed geophysical references along the coast that enable the animals to maintain a fixed course heading (Berger 2004; alerstam et al. 2006).”
• Cues and decision rules in animal migration (2011, background): “Excellent reviews on orientation and navigation can be found in, for example, Åkesson and Hedenström (2007), and Newton ( 2008 ) .”
• Bird migration in the southern hemisphere: a review comparing continents (2008, background): “These have been extensively studied in northern hemisphere migrants and include mechanisms of orientation, timing of the annual cycle, and metabolic changes to prepare for migratory flight (Munro 2003; Åkesson and Hedenström 2007; Ramenofsky and Wingfield 2007).”
• Satellite tracking large numbers of individuals to infer population level dispersal and core areas for the protection of an endangered species (2013, background): “…to breed, many disparate foraging sites may be used depending on resource availability and the pattern of dispersal which may be influenced by factors such as wind direction, sea currents or land barriers in avian, marine and terrestrial migrants, respectively (e.g. Akesson & Hedenstrom, 2007).”
