Abstract

The initial results of radar study of Honey Buzzard migration above the territory of Central Israel were presented. We came to conclusion that the bird flocks choose the route and height of migratory flights which correspond to the optimum atmospheric conditions and minimum energy costs. This was caused by convective streams and bars that formed under influence of breeze and mountain-valley circulation.

Summary

Introduction

The initial results of radar study of Honey Buzzard migration above the territory of Central Israel were presented. Начало группировки и подъема птиц из земли приходится на время, когда конвективные потоки в приземном слое атмосферы под влиянием местных условий еще не сформировались. Основная часть перелета приходится на период развитой конвекции и максимального эффекта бризов и горно-долинного процесса (Allen et al, 1996). Это обстоятельство дает возможность предположить, что птицы оптимально используют структуру воздушных потоков, которые под воздействием погодных процессов формируются в регионе перелета.
