Top 10 models (cumulative AIC weight, CW = 0.98) in the robust design analysis of multi-season camera trapping of snow leopards for variables affecting survival (S), abundance (N), temporary immigration (G1), temporary emigration (G2), capture probability (p), and recapture probability (c) for snow

Included in the table are: AICc = corrected Akaike Information Criteria, ΔAICc = differences in AICc values between each model and the best fitting model, W = model weight, Model Likelihood, K = number of model parameters, and Model Deviance. Constraints tested included Yng→Ad_2yr = snow leopards marked as young turn into adults after 2 years with parameters similar to the latter, Yng-Ad_2yr&diff = snow leopards marked as young turn into sub-adults after 2 years with parameters different from young as well as adults; AgeGrp = snow leopards marked as young have parameters different than for those marked as adult, Session or Period = conditions when parameters are considered to be different for each year.
