Validationwild peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus)proposed
A large-scale tracking study that followed 56 peregrine falcons from 6 populations breeding in the Eurasian Arctic using satellite telemetry. The study aimed to map migration routes and understand the formation and maintenance of these routes across Eurasia. Tracking data revealed five distinct migration routes used by the breeding populations, which were likely formed through longitudinal and latitudinal shifts in breeding grounds during the transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene epoch. The study found that contemporary environmental divergence between routes maintains their distinctiveness and provides insights into how climate change may affect future migration patterns.
PRIMARY OUTCOME

identification of distinct migration routes and understanding of route formation and maintenance
SUCCESS CRITERIA
successful tracking and mapping of migration routes across continental scale
PROTOCOL
satellite tracking of 56 peregrine falcons from 6 Arctic breeding populations across Eurasia
