To examine whether these global prevailing winds have shaped the genetic diversity of modern-day forests, Dr Kling compared current planetary wind models - compiled from 30 years of global wind ...

Global wind patterns shape genetic differentiation, asymmetric gene flow, and genetic diversity in trees. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , 2021; 118 (17): e2017317118 DOI: 10.1073 ...

The study compared global wind patterns with previously published genetic data of nearly 100 tree and shrub species collected from forests around the world, ...

Now their map has inspired another Web developer, Cameron Beccario, to adapt the concept to a global scale. Beccario started with a wind map of Tokyo , where he lives. Then he took on the world.
