Trade-offs between specificity and regional generality in habitat association models: a case study of two species of African vulture

2009-08-01

Abstract excerpt

1. The habitat requirements of various species have been evaluated by statistical models. However, recent studies have shown that models are often not transferable between regions, limiting their applicability and ability to inform management decisions. One possible cause is that models tend to reflect dominant landscape features, which vary between regions. Transferability, and thus applicability, may be increase...
