• Adjustable wind selectivity in shearwaters implies knowledge of the foraging landscape 

      Harris, Stephanie M.; Bishop, Charles M.; Bond, Sarah; Fernandes, Paul G.; Guilford, Tim; Lewin, Patrick J.; Padget, Oliver; Robins, Peter; Schneider, Will T.; Waggit, James J.; Wilmes, Sophie B.; Cordes, Line (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)
      Understanding the movements of highly mobile animals is challenging because of the many factors they must consider in their decision-making. Many seabirds, for example, are adapted to use winds to travel long distances at ...
    • Optimization of dynamic soaring in a flap-gliding seabird affects its large-scale distribution at sea 

      Kempton, James A.; Wynn, Joe; Bond, Sarah; Evry, James; Fayet, Annette L.; Gillies, Natasha; Guilford, Tim; Kavelaars, Marwa; Juarez-Martinez, Ignacio; Padget, Oliver; Rutz, Christian; Shoji, Akiko; Syposz, Martyna; Taylor, Graham K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Dynamic soaring harvests energy from a spatiotemporal wind gradient, allowing albatrosses to glide over vast distances. However, its use is challenging to demonstrate empirically and has yet to be confirmed in other seabirds. ...
