Fåglar, fladdermöss och insekter delar upp luften i olika trafikleder. Ny forskning från Lunds universitet visar att atmosfären fungerar som ett eget ekosystem med komplexa ekologiska processer som påverkar hur djur rör sig mellan olika höjdnivåer. Vi ser ofta på luften som tom – men i själva verket är den full av liv. I en ny vetenskaplig artikel introducerar forskare i Lund, Nederländerna och US
