“…We used JSDMs to quantify species–habitat associations and co‐occurrence patterns between wild ungulates and disturbance factors. Specifically, we used the spOccupancy package 0.5.2 (Doser, Finley, Kery, et al.,
2022) for the R statistical programing language (R Core Team, 2022) to fit a multispecies occupancy model that accounted for the effects of environmental covariates, residual species correlations, imperfect detection, and spatial autocorrelation (Doser, Finley, & Banerjee,
2022). Species‐specific occurrence probabilities (
) were modeled as a logit‐linear combination of site‐specific predictors and latent variables with corresponding species‐specific factor loadings.…”
