Effects of weather variation on waterfowl migration: Lessons from a continental‐scale generalizable avian movement and energetics model
Abstract We developed a continental energetics‐based model of daily mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) movement during the non‐breeding period (September to May) to predict year‐specific migration and overwinter occurrence. The model approximates movements and stopovers as functions of metabolism and weat...
