Individual repeatability in timing and spatial flexibility of migration routes of trans-Saharan migratory raptors (2014, methodology): “The high consistency of these results provide supporting evidence of a stronger influence of endogenous schedules than local environmental conditions, similarly to observed in other species (Alerstam et al., 2006; Battley, 2006; Vardanis et al., 2011; Stanley et al., 2012).”
The strategy of fly-and-forage migration, illustrated for the osprey (Pandion haliaetus) (2007, background): “Migrating ospreys normally travel during the day and only exceptionally, and then mainly during long oversea flights across the Mediterranean or Baltic Seas have they been recorded in nocturnal flights (Alerstam et al. 2006).”
Traveling or stopping of migrating birds in relation to wind: an illustration for the osprey (2006, methodology): “To examine the inﬂuence of weather on departure decisions and test our prediction that raptors which frequently use energy-saving thermal soaring ﬂight show a low wind selectivity, we used data from satellite-tracked ospreys (Hake et al., 2001; Kjelle´n et al., 2001; Alerstam et al., 2006).”
Contrasting extreme long-distance migration patterns in bar-tailed godwits Limosa lapponica (2012, background): “Ospreys Pandion haliaetus migrating between Africa and Sweden travelled 31% faster overall on spring than autumn migration (Alerstam et al. 2006).”
Flexibility in daily travel routines causes regional variation in bird migration speed (2008, methodology): “The migration route of the Ospreys we study (see Hake et al. 2001; Alerstam et al. 2006) runs”
How Migrants Get There: Migratory Performance and Orientation (2007, background): “Many birds return to known stopover sites and wintering areas used year after year (Åkesson 2003), and they even follow very similar or identical migration routes between years (Alerstam et al. 2006).”
Phenotypic changes in spring arrival: evolution, phenotypic plasticity, effects of weather and condition (2007, background): “These studies have revealed that plasticity in individual migratory behaviour is very high, not only in the timing of migration, but also in the use of migration routes and wintering areas (Berthold et al. 2002, 2004, Meyburg et al. 2004, Alerstam et al. 2006).”
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).”
