Broad-front migration leads to strong migratory connectivity in the lesser kestrel (Falco naumanni)
2019
Aim: Migratory animals regularly move between often distant breeding and non‐breeding ranges. Knowledge about how these ranges are linked by movements of individuals from different populations is crucial for unravelling temporal variability in population spatial structuring and for identifying environmental drivers of population dynamics acting at different spatio‐temporal scales. We performed a large‐scale individual‐based migration tracking study of an Afro‐Palaearctic migratory raptor, to determine the patterns of migratory connectivity of European breeding populations. Location: Europe, Africa. Methods: Migration data were recorded using different devices (geolocators, satellite transmi…
Handling of Small Scale Structures of the Irradiance Field for Solar Energy System Analysis – A Review
2016
Abstract Satellite derived irradiance information currently approaches a status as standard input for solar energy system analysis. Due to intrinsic limitations in spatial and temporal resolution, these data fail to give information of the full dynamics of the irradiance field in space and time. The analysis of systems with sensibility to details of the temporal evolution of the irradiance field and systems with sensibility to the spatial inhomogeneity of the field require knowledge of its fine-structured. Thus, methods for a respective enhancement of the satellite derived data are needed. This contribution presents various approaches discussed for setting up respective input data.
