• Predator escape tactics in birds: linking ecology and aerodynamics (2010, background): “The benefit of BM decrease for overall flight capacity can also be demonstrated using the aerodynamic considerations for flight performance (based on wind tunnel studies) in Dietz et al. (2007).”
• Rates of mass gain and energy deposition in red knot on their final spring staging site is both time‐ and condition‐dependent (2007, background): “Alternatively, there may be other costs associated with fuelling at a high rate, such as increased energetic costs and reduced vigilance leading to increased predation risk (Brodin 2001; MacLeod et al. 2005a, MacLeod et al. 2005b), or reduced manoeuvrability of high mass birds leading to increased p”
