Think all barriers for migrating birds are natural like deserts and seas? Not so! I helped discover that the man-made Corn Belt is also a barrier to migration for many birds. Check out more about my study here...

America's Corn Belt acts as barrier for migrating songbirds | Cornell Chronicle

The vast agricultural landscape of the U.S. Midwest known as the Corn Belt acts as a barrier for migrating landbirds, causing them to adjust their flight behaviors similar to when crossing natural bar...

1. Did you know that the Corn Belt in the Midwest USA is so vast you can see it from space? 🌽 How would this affect billions of migrating songbirds passing through each year? 🐦 Check out our new study in @conbiology.bsky.social to find out! 🧵1/8 conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

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. Data is available on Alofdata.eu , see our blogpost: go.nature.com/3F0wQ0L

European data on animals aloft now publicly available

Weather radars detect more than weather, they also continuously register the movements of billions of animals (birds, bats, insects) in the air. Those data are now publicly available for large parts o...

Excited to share my radar aeroecology research on the stopover ecology and conservation of migrating songbirds with @ctaudubon.bsky.social community tonight at 7pm EST!

The Connecticut Audubon Society@ctaudubon.bsky.social · last yr.

Migrating birds rely on stopover sites to rest and refuel, but habitat loss threatens their journey. Dr. Guo's (@fyguo.bsky.social) research explores key migration hotspots and how birds adapt when those sites disappear. Join us for her Young, Gifted & Wild About Birds talk this Thursday!
