Disruption of magnetic compass orientation in migratory birds by radiofrequency electromagnetic fields

The radical pair mechanism has been put forward as the basis of the magnetic compass sense of migratory birds. Some of the strongest supporting evidence has come from behavioural experiments in which birds exposed to weak time‐dependent magnetic fields lose their ability to orient in the geomagnetic...
