1)风的连通性已被确定为驱动许多生物过程的关键因素。2)用于管理风数据的现有软件对于研究许多生态过程来说往往过于复杂，无法纳入一个广泛的框架。3)在这里，我们提出了rWind，一个R语言包，用于下载和管理全球预报系统的地面风数据，并计算位置之间的风连接。4)使用rWind获得的数据可以用于分析生物过程的一般框架中，以开发关于风在驱动生态和进化模式中的作用的假设。
1) Wind connectivity has been identified as a key factor driving many biological processes. 2) Existing software available for managing wind data are often overly complex for studying many ecological processes and cannot be incorporated into a broad framework. 3) Here we present rWind, an R language package to download and manage surface wind data from the Global Forecasting System and to compute wind connectivity between locations. 4) Data obtained with rWind can be used in a general framework for analysis of biological processes to develop hypotheses about the role of wind in driving ecological and evolutionary patterns.
