Time versus energy minimization migration strategy varies with body size and season in long-distance migratory shorebirds

Table 1 Expectation for the four migratory behaviours when migrants adopt a time- versus energy-minimization strategy

	Time-minimization	Energy-minimization
(i) Migration speed	high	low
(ii) Number of staging sites	few	many
(iii) Total migration distance	long or similar	short or similar
(iv) Maximum step length	long	short
