Fuel stores, fuel accumulation, and the decision to depart from a migration stopover site (2008, methodology): “Clearly, other factors also influence departure decision, such as weather factors (Schaub et al. 2004) and predation risk (Dierschke 2003; Schmaljohann and Dierschke 2005).”
Birds: blowin’ by the wind? (2006, background): “In contrast, weak winds and tail-winds promote take offs (Pyle et al. 1993; Gudmundsson 1994; Baumgartner 1997; Gauthreaux and Belser 1999; Green et al. 2002; Schaub et al. 2004).”
Individual variation in timing of migration: causes and reproductive consequences in greater snow geese (Anser caerulescens atlanticus) (2004, background): “Therefore, weather conditions (especially wind speed and direction) and social stimuli are probably key factors determining departure of individuals (Berthold 2001; Schaub et al. 2004).”
Traveling or stopping of migrating birds in relation to wind: an illustration for the osprey (2006, background): “…with some species showing a very distinct preference for tailwinds while others are only weakly selective of such winds, and regularly traveling also on occasions of opposed winds (Alerstam 1978) or show small effects of wind conditions on departure decisions (Rabøl, 1978; Schaub et al., 2004).”
Climate change and timing of avian breeding and migration throughout Europe (2007, background): “…additional environmental factors like wind speed and direction also affect migration speed (Jenni & Schaub 2003, Schaub et al. 2004, Gordo 2007, Sinelschikova et al. 2007), we focus here just on temperature change for the sake of simplicity and because high temperatures are often affected by…”
Trans-Sahara migrants select flight altitudes to minimize energy costs rather than water loss (2009, background): “Accordingly, departure from stopover sites occurs mostly when tailwinds are prevailing (Erni et al. 2002; Schaub et al. 2004; Erni et al. 2005; for review, see Liechti (2006)).”
Chapter 3 Modeling Individual Animal Histories with Multistate Capture–Recapture Models (2009, background): “More recently, it was recognized that standard open‐model data can be used with MSMR models that include ‘‘unobservable’’ states to deal effectively with temporary emigration (Hunter and Caswell, 2009; Fujiwara and Caswell, 2002b; Kendall and Nichols, 2002; Schaub et al., 2004b).”
