Kyle G. Horton

Kyle G. Horton studies bird migration using tools like weather radar, acoustic monitoring of nocturnal flight calls, and citizen-science data (e.g., eBird) to understand when, where, and how birds move through the atmosphere. His work examines how weather, artificial light at night, urban and agricultural landscapes, and seasonal timing (phenology) affect migratory birds, with applications for conservation such as reducing bird-window collisions and identifying priority habitat areas.

Publication output has grown somewhat unevenly over the past decade, rising from about 4 papers in 2017 to a peak of 18 in 2023 and 16 in 2025, indicating an overall increasing and currently active publication pace.
