Correlations between breeding site phenology and the timing of individual migration events. The time difference between arrival and spring green up at the breeding site (TARR_B – tSPRING) in relation to migration timing (top left and right) and to resource phenology at the breeding site (bottom left and right). Significant positive relation between TARR_B – tSPRING and departure from the non-breeding site (TDEP_NB; top left), arrival at the breeding site (TARR_B; top right) and time difference between arrival and the date when insects start to develop at the breeding site (TARR_B – tBDT; bottom left). Significant negative relation between TARR_B – tSPRING and the time difference between the end of the offspring’s peak food requirement and the end of larvae availability (TARR_B* – tDD; bottom right). At each solid regression line the corresponding confidence interval (grey shaded area) and confidence limits (dotted lines) are given. For the test statistics see main text.
