At regional scales, determining the environmental variables that primarily influence compositional variation in species assemblages reveals ecologically relevant habitat types for conservation. Strength of species{\textquoteright} association with these habitats and differences in species occurrence along environmental gradients lend credence to niche-based assembly and help estimate responses of tree communities to natural or human-mediated environmental change.</p>
