Transoceanic Aerial Movements. PLoS ONE 3(8): e2928. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0002928

Cost function used to calculate the cost (arbitrary units) to move over a friction surface
depending on wind speed (m/s) and the angle between the bird heading and the wind azimuth (in
degrees). The travelling cost to move over the friction surface in the absence of wind was set to
31 (green); travelling cost decreases with faster tail winds up to 1 (deep blue) and increases with
faster head winds up to 61 (red).
