Extended Data Table 1 Summary of model performances of forest habitat comparisons in an island ecosystem and a countryside ecosystem

From: Predicting biodiversity change and averting collapse in agricultural landscapes

  1. The summary shows comparisons of forest fragments embedded in a human-dominated landscape and true forest islands surrounded by water; see Extended Data Table 3 for analyses with deforested habitat matrix sampling included. Listed are relevant outputs summarizing the performances of generalized linear mixed effects models predicting estimated bat species richness (green heading), bat species evenness (orange heading) and the Species Assemblage Abundance Shift Index (purple heading; see Methods), using a variety of landscape metrics as explanatory variables. Bat biodiversity and landscape data were gathered from a Costa Rican countryside ecosystem and a Panamanian island ecosystem (that is, ecosystem type). All models are generalized linear mixed-effects models with Gaussian error structures and identity links. In addition, all models include a ‘corRatio’ correlation structure based on site or net coordinates (UTM). Net-level analyses included site identity as a random effect in all models.
