    160418-N-PO203-722 STANFORD, Conn. (Apr. 18, 2016) Office of Naval Research-sponsored researchers at Stanford University recently found a new way to precisely measure the vortices created by birds' wings during flight. The results shed greater light on how these creatures produce enough lift to fly -- and challenge the accuracy of three aerodynamics models long used to predict animal flight.
