Abstract Background For many migratory species, inexperienced (naïve) individuals reach remote non-breeding areas independently using one or more inherited compass headings and, potentially, magnetic signposts to gauge where switch between headings. Inherited magnetic-based migration has not yet been assessed as a population-level process, particularly across strong geomagnetic gradients long-term shifts (hereafter, secular variation) could create mismatches with Therefore, it remains unclear whether and potentially adapt variation under natural selection. Methods To address these unknowns, we modelled orientation programs an evolutionary algorithm incorporating global data (1900–2023). Modelled population mixing incorporated both natal dispersal trans-generational inheritance of signposts, including intrinsic (stochastic) variability in inheritance. Using the model, robustness trans-hemispheric songbird whose Nearctic breeding grounds have undergone rapid (mean 34° clockwise drift declination, 1900–2023), which travels via Europe Africa. Results Model-evolved magnetic-signposted was overall successful throughout 124-year period, 60–90% mean arrival broad range plausible precision gauging signposts. Signposted reduced trans-Atlantic flight distances up twice compared non-signposted migration. Magnetic shifted plastically response 16°–17° among programs), whereas signpost latitudes were constrained (3°–5° shifts). This plasticity required (model-evolved σ ≈ 2.6° standard error), preventing from causing unsustainable open-ocean flights. Conclusions Our study supports potential viability illustrates generally how can mediate constrain evolution routes, environmental change.

How animals refine migratory behavior over their lifetime (i.e., the ontogeny of migration) is an enduring question with important implications for predicting adaptive capacity migrants in a changing world. Yet, our inability to monitor movements individuals from early life onward has limited understanding migration. The exploration–refinement hypothesis posits that learning shapes migration long-lived species, resulting greater exploratory followed by more rapid and direct movement during later life. We test examining how white storks ( Ciconia ciconia ) balance energy, time, information as they develop first years Here, we show young birds reduce energy expenditure flight while also increasing gain exploring new places As age experience, older stop instead move quickly directly, flight. During spring migration, innovated novel shortcuts transition into adulthood, suggesting reliance on spatial memory acquired through learning. These incremental refinements provide support importance individual within long-distance

Animal migration is a fascinating phenomenon that has puzzled mankind since the time of ancient Greece. It process widespread across varied range taxa and it shines especially in birds which, because their mobility, display an amazing diversity routes strategies. With advances tracking devices improvements sequencing technologies, recent work provides support for strong genetic influence several migratory traits different species. However, there little to no evidence any common sequence‐based mechanism behind this complex behaviour, nor unifying principle explaining it. We review how focus understanding basis should be shifted towards studying regulatory mechanisms gene expression instead traditional candidate approach. Importantly, role as underlying driver phenotype can resolve opposing often views mainly either under or environmental influence. emphasise research take new directions, reinforcing probably not regulated birds. Here, we notion 1) only evolve fast if quantitative trait with large standing variation; 2) main drivers evolution seem diverse expression–regulation rather than gene‐level polymorphisms; 3) non‐coding sequences genome, epigenetics structural variation might more important shaping previously thought. Further, present hypotheses outlining these bird species defining certain traits.

Abstract Our ability to forecast the spatial and temporal patterns of ecological processes at continental scales has drastically improved over past decade. Yet, predicting broad while capturing fine-scale is a central challenge forecasting given inherent tension between grain extent, whereby enhancing one often diminishes other. We leveraged 10 years terrestrial atmospheric data (2012–2021) develop high-resolution (2.9 × 2.9 km), radar-driven bird migration model for highly active region Mississippi flyway. Based on suite candidate models we examined, adding predictors performance only marginally, whereas spatially distant predictors, particularly air temperature wind speed from focal regions, were major contributors our top model, explaining 56% variation in regional activity. Among which ranked considerably lower than terms variable importance, vegetation phenology, artificial light night, percent forest cover most important predictors.

Abstract Avian navigation has fascinated researchers for many years. Yet, despite a vast amount of literature on the topic it remains mystery how birds are able to find their way across long distances while relying only cues available locally and reacting those fly. Navigation is multi-modal, in that may use different at times as response environmental conditions they themselves in. It also operates spatial temporal scales, where strategies be used parts journey. This multi-modal multi-scale nature however been challenging study, since would require long-term tracking data along with contemporaneous co-located information cues. In this paper we propose new alternative data-driven paradigm study avian navigation. That is, instead taking traditional theory-based approach based posing research question then collecting navigation, approach, large amounts data, not purposedly collected specific question, analysed identify as-yet-unknown patterns behaviour. Current technological developments have led collections both animal which openly scientists. These open combined exploratory using mining, machine learning artificial intelligence methods, can support identification unexpected during migration, lead better understanding navigational decision-making scales.
