The importance of a particular variable in model evaluation will depend on the purpose for which the model will be used.To better constrain the responses，as well as to explore how expert rankings of different model variables might change depending on the scientific objectives，we asked participants to rate the importance of different variables with respect to several different“Science Drivers”.A list of the six Science Drivers used in this survey is shown in Table 1.For each Science Driver，participants were presented with a preselected list of variables thought to be relevant to that topic，and asked to rate the importance of each variable on a sevenpoint Likert scale from“Not at all Important”to“Extremely Important”.Participants were also invited to provide written feedback identifying any“very important”or“extremely important”variables that they felt had been overlooked；many took the opportunity to provide these comments，summarized in Tables S1–S3（see Electronic Supplementary Material）.This feedback will be used to improve the survey design in the follow-up study.
