Appendix 3. Correlation matrix produced by the Software for Assisted Habitat Modeling CovariateCorrelationAndSelection module showing the 11 predictor variables that were uncorrelated below the 0.7 threshold we used. The diagonal shows a histogram for each
predictor. Above the diagonal is the correlation coefficient for each pair, with text scaled by size of the coefficient. Where an ‘S’ is present in the bottom right the value is the Spearman rank coefficient; otherwise it is the Pearson’s coefficient. Below the diagonal is a scatterplot of the presence (red) and background (yellow) locations for each pair.
