“…Most insect migrants engage in windborne movements high above the ground, where their self-propelled flight speeds are considerably slower than typical windspeeds, and thus they are transported more-or-less downwind (Chapman et al, 2010(Chapman et al, , 2015Reynolds et al, 2017). With such transport on fast-moving airstreams, even minute insects can cover hundreds of kilometers in a single day or night of continuous flight, and thousands of kilometers over several successive days or nights of migration (Chapman et al, 2012;Florio et al, 2020;Gao et al, 2020;Hedlund et al, 2021;Huestis et al, 2019;Hu et al, 2019Hu et al, , 2021. In addition to the fundamental importance of winds, migration can be terminated by weather events such as heavy rainfall, downdrafts, and cold temperatures (Drake & Farrow, 1988;Drake & Reynolds, 2012;Wainwright et al, 2022;Westbrook & Isard, 1999); thus, meteorological factors have a critical influence on insect migration patterns (Chapman et al, 2015;Drake & Farrow, 1988;Reynolds et al, 2017).…”
