a

Each landscape representation measured connectivity as a function of distance (D) and the traversal costs resulting from the inter-feature weights of elevation (E), plan curvature (P), tree and scrub cover (T), river order (R), highway traffic volume (H), and bridge length (B).

b

Landscape representations were ranked by their Akaike weight (w i). Only the top ranked cost-surface landscape representations (Σw i≤0.95) plus the uniform landscape representation are listed.

r 2  =  coefficient of determination (in all cases p≤0.03), μlog  =  the mean of the logarithm of the lognormal dispersal kernel, σlog  =  the standard deviation of the logarithm of the lognormal dispersal kernel, maxDC  =  maximum observed dispersal connectivity value.
