Figure 3

Principal Components Analysis plot of values for axes 1 and 2 based on habitat parameters for 200 borrow-pit ponds coded as agriculture (0–33.3% forest, 𝑛 = 9 1 ), mixed habitat (33.4–66.6% forest, 𝑛 = 4 4 ), or forest (66.7–100% forest, 𝑛 = 6 5 ) landscape types, as determined by land-cover within a 500 m pond buffer area. Vectors indicate the strength and direction of habitat parameters (see Table 3 for abbreviations and description of parameters).
