Researchers at Cornell Lab of Ornithology, University of Massachusetts and University of Illinois have developed breakthrough methods to track the migration of individual bird species by combining participatory science data with weather radar technology. This advancement addresses a long-standing limitation in migration monitoring: While radar can detect birds in flight, it cannot identify which species are migrating.
