Suitability, success and sinks: how do predictions of nesting distributions relate to fitness parameters in high arctic waders?
Abstract Aim Although habitat suitability maps derived from species distribution models ( SDM s) are often assumed to highlight locations that can sustain healthy populations over time, the relationship between suitability scores and fitness parameters has rarely been tested thoroughly.
