An albatross track (Identifier: 4264-84830852) displayed on the Microsoft Aerial basemap between June and July 2008. The visualization highlights the relationship between net primary production (NPP) of the ocean and albatross movement speed. The albatross appears to move slowly (smaller point size) or make frequent stops along the coast of Peru to forage in high NPP areas (shown in darker green colors). The bird appears to fly faster (larger point size) during the flights over the ocean and around the Galapagos where ocean NPP is lower (lighter green colors). a The overall foraging route of the bird, b close-up of the bird’s activity around Galapagos Islands, and c close-up of the bird’s activity at the coast of Peru
