Results from the bryozoan habitat suitability study. (A) Occurrence of covariates in behavioral models. “Positive” and “negative” refer to the signs of the calibrated $\beta$ coefficients. Covariates’ abbreviations are as in SI Appendix, Table S4. GeoAll, percentage of alluvial rocks; GeoMrn, percentage of moraines; GeoWat, percentage of superficial water; LocMwt, local mean water temperature; LocSlp, local slope; UpCAr, contributing area; UpElv, upstream mean elevation. (B) Distribution of calibrated values of ${\lambda }_B$ in behavioral models. (C) Map of local eDNA concentration obtained by averaging results from all behavioral models. (D) Modeled ($C$) vs. observed ($C^m$) F. sultana eDNA concentration. Red lines identify 10th–90th percentile ranges of the distribution of all accepted models; squares represent values averaged over all accepted models. Site numbers are introduced by the number sign (#). (E) Zoomed in view of D.
