Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

Our results clearly demonstrated that medium- and long-distance migrants significantly differ in the departure decision-making process at a stopover. They provide important information that the innate migration program of birds facilitates a complex decision-making process and that this process differs between migrant songbirds experiencing different time constraints during migration.
