The development of flight surfaces on the avian wing

Abstract The evolution of the feathering arrangements that comprise the modern avian wing can be tracked using both physical evidence from the known fossil record and by interpreting aerodynamic theory. Evidence from both the fossil record and from living birds suggests that all feathered wings reflect the same basic structural plan. Here we review scenarios for the evolutionary history of the lifting surfaces of the feathered wing, suggesting non-locomotory influences on their early development and building on Pennycuick’s (2008) aerodynamic theories for the eventual development of avian flight.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
