Akaike weights (wi) of univariate models fitted to test alternative water vole response curves (linear or quadratic) to the main mosaic gradients describing the habitat-network and the matrix.

Comparisons included the null model (i.e. fitted only to the random component). The directions of associations between land mosaic occupancy measures and predictors are presented for response curves used in multivariate analysis: (+) positive, (−) negative, (∩) unimodal (see Fig. S2).
