Abstract | The study of early theropod flight involves avialans as well as other pennaraptorans. It requires
the study of anatomy that is familiar to the modern ornithologist, but also very different and alien.
Early theropod flight therefore necessitates study methods that can incorporate what we know about
sophisticated powered and unpowered flight in living birds while being mindful of the differences
between them and the earliest theropod flyers. In this chapter we will survey key methods and
approaches, covering their best-practice applications along the timeline of early theropod flight
evolution and priorities for future method development. |
