Only results from best-fitting models and species with at least one significant variable are shown. Note that we used an inverse link function; hence, positive parameters indicate negative effects and vice-versa.
**P<0.01,
**P<0.05,
P<0.10,
non-significant.
†Non-robust model (significant effects of certain variables were determined by single data points).
‡Robust model (1–2 data points excluded, see Methods for details).
