While aloft, the birds were found to leverage the circular movements of upward drafts, originating
under cumulus clouds, to soar to higher altitudes.
Unlike other birds, most of which avoid clouds because of their turbulence, frigatebirds seem to seek them out to ride on the strong updrafts
under cumulus clouds in the open ocean to gain altitude.
The birds ride on the strong updrafts

clouds during the times when shallow
cumuli exist in the observations, while the deep convective and stratiform
cloud schemes significantly over-produce low - level
clouds throughout the day.
