Figure 1 Evidence for direct flow detection in nocturnally-migrating moths. (A) Schematic diagram of moth and songbird heading (h) and flow (f) directions during spring in relation to the seasonal preferred direction of movement (PDM) which is assumed to be due north in this schematic; ω is the angle between PDM and flow, δ is the angle between flow and heading. The angle δ would be positive if considering correction for drift (δCORR) but negative (to the left) if considering the turbulence mechanism (δTURB). (B) Same as (A), but here the heading is on the other side of the flow with respect to the PDM, and thus δCORR would be negative but δTURB would be positive. (C) Distribution of moth δCORR offsets when the angle between the flow and the PDM is small (ω < 25°). Each of the small coloured circles on the periphery of the plot represents the mean value for a single migration night (spring and autumn datasets combined), while the overall mean offset is shown by the black arrow with grey bars representing the 95% CI. (D) Distribution of moth δTURB offsets when the angle between the flow and the PDM is small (ω < 25°). (E) Distribution of songbird δCORR offsets when the angle between the flow and the PDM is small (ω < 25°). (F) Distribution of songbird δTURB offsets when the angle between the flow and the PDM is small (ω < 25°). (G) Seasonal patterns of the mean (±95% CI) of moth δCORR offsets when the angle between the flow and the PDM is large (ω > 25°), in flows to the right and to the left of the PDM (in spring: n = 11 to the right and n = 18 to the left; in autumn: n = 16 to the right and n = 43 to the left). (H) Seasonal patterns of the mean (±95% CI) of songbird δCORR offsets when the angle between the flow and the PDM is large (ω > 25°), in flows to the right and to the left of the PDM (in spring: n = 27 to the right and n = 15 to the left; in autumn n = 4 to the right and n = 33 to the left).
