Are animals randomly distributed in the air, or is there a structure to where and when we find them? In our new paper we outline factors that shape habitat use in the air, from abiotic structure to biotic interactions. A lot of fun discussions behind this one! 🦅🦋🦇🌬

Animal niches in the airspace
For flying animals, including many birds, bats, and insects, the air is a crucial
arena for a range of behaviors. Technological advances, such as year-round tracking
of flight altitudes and expanded u...

🐦Saviez-vous qu'il est possible d’utiliser les radars météo pour anticiper les mouvements migratoires des oiseaux ?
➡️Ce fut l’objectif du projet SEMAFOR, une collaboration entre Météo-France, France Énergies Marines, Biotope et l’Institut Ornithologique Suisse.

Weather radars continuously register the movements of billions of animals in the air! We have now published datasets covering large parts of Europe, providing an overview of the aerial habitat in a way no other method can.
