Departure fuel loads in time-minimizing migrating birds can be explained by the energy costs of being heavy

Lindström & Alerstam (1992Am. Nat.140,477–491) presented a model that predicts optimal departure fuel loads as a function of the rate of fuel deposition in time-minimizing migrants. The basis of the model is that the coverable distance per unit of fuel deposited, diminishes with increasing fuel load. This is an effect of the increasing flight costs associated with increasing body mass. Lindstr

Mobilizing Pity: Iranian Women on the Long Road to Azadi Stadium

This article examines the politics of pity deployed by Iranian activists against the football stadium ban imposed on Iranian women and its impact on individual and collective histories of suffering and struggle of Iran's women in the pursuit of attaining citizenship
