Apparent survival rate (φ) estimates (and standard errors) are based on data collected on two 100-ha plots in Ecuador, 2001–2012.

Results are based on the first six years of data (2001–2006; see [8]) and for the full 12 years. Competitive models (ΔAICcφ1) and subsequent capture periods [φ2, i.e., TSM models, e.g. φ(2./.)p(.)] for the full data set (2001–2012) but only φ2 for the reduced set (2001–2006 data).aI/R - number of individuals captured/number of recaptures (excluding individuals only captured during the final sample) over the 12-year period.bΔAICc - differences in AICc.cwi - relative strength (weight) of evidence for selected models.dModel included p(t) rather than p(.).
