Annual waterthrush nest survival covariates found in the top supported (ΔAICc <2, n = 6) and unsupported (n = 1) AICc models based on regression coefficients, standard error (SE), and 85% confidence intervals.

In the null base model Rain had positive influence on daily survival rate (DSR) in 2013 and 2014, while TerrRunoff had negative influence on nest survival in 2014. Significant covariates with non-overlapping confidence intervals are bolded. Covariates included in every model to account for their influence (i.e., Rain, NestAge, TT, and TerrRunoff; [28]) have model-averaged regression coefficients and unconditional SEs. Variable names are defined in S2 Table.
