Overall, the canonical axes were highly significant for both vertebrates (Monte Carlo permutation test: F (8,21) = 1.50, p < 0.001) and spermatophytes (Monte Carlo permutation test: F (8,21) = 2.04, p < 0.001).
Overall, the canonical axes were highly significant for both vertebrates (Monte Carlo permutation test: F (8,21) = 1.50, p < 0.001) and spermatophytes (Monte Carlo permutation test: F (8,21) = 2.04, p < 0.001).
However, for spermatophytes, fractional water cover was a significant constraint at 250 m, while absolute elevation was significant at 250 and 1000 m and showed a trend at the 500 m scale (Supplementary Information 3).
