Which mechanism explains lift increase when birds soar circling upwards?

💡 Explanation

Birds exploit thermal lift because convection transfers heat causing air to rise, resulting in increased lift allowing soaring; therefore, thermals contribute to circling, rather than changes in gravitation forces or metabolic expenditure alone.
