Sentence examples for terrestrial performance from inspiring English sources

The trade-off between flight, swimming and terrestrial performance in geese and other semi-aquatic species is reflected in their trunk and limb morphology, waddling motion, restricted gait selection and consequent lower top speed of terrestrial locomotion (Biewener and Corning, 2001; Nudds et al., 2010; Provini et al., 2012; Usherwood et al., 2008).
