However it is important to move beyond designating important habitat solely based on species occupancy or use. Incorporating demographic measures such as reproductive success will provide increased power and detail for ranking habitat for management priority, particularly across multiple life stages and large spatial extents (Gibson et al., 2016; Pratt and Beck, 2021; Stephens et al., 2015). We provide a quantitative approach to differentiate productive habitats supporting high selection and survival from areas of maladaptive selection where selection and survival are misaligned at large spatial scales.\nReferences cited\nCrawford, B.
