Long-distance flights can throw seabirds' internal clocks out of sync, causing navigation errors

A study led by Oxford University has found that seabirds flying long distances across the Atlantic can experience a mismatch between their internal body clocks and local time (the same process that leads to jet lag in humans), causing them to make predictable errors when navigating by the sun. The results have been published in the journal Science.
