Estimated parameters for the bivariate resilience relationships.

Model estimates for 31 factors based on the responses of 28 coral reef scientists. Relationships are: between resistance and recovery for (a) their perceived importance (PI) and (b) the scientific empirical evidence (EE); between perceived importance and scientific evidence for (c) resistance and (d) recovery; and between the mean and standard deviation of respondent scores for (e) resistance, (f) recovery, (g) empirical evidence, and (h) recovery. Values are median estimates and 95% uncertainty intervals (in parentheses); models are presented only for relationships with a clear linear trend (i.e. uncertainty intervals for slope parameter not spanning zero). Estimates include Pearson correlation coefficients, as the assignment of response and covariate was arbitrary. Intercept and slope values were not given if relationships were not statistically significant.
