Habitat availability is insufficient to explain regional variations in white stork breeding habitat preference

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding species–habitat associations is key for making predictions of species distributions of relevance to ecology and conservation. Regional differences in species habitat preferences can hinder the transferability of habitat models in space and time, but our ability to account for these differences will depend on the mechanisms underlying them
