Fine-scale flight behaviour reveals eagles' response to different uplift sources and highlights observational gaps in high-resolution weather models.
Understanding how animals respond to their physical environment requires environmental observations at the scale at which behavioural decisions are made. For soaring birds, the coarse resolution of weather products has long hindered the analysis of their behavioural response to fine-scale atmospheric dynamics, forcing uplift sources to be inferred largely from behaviour itself. Here, we combined…
