Results of likelihood ratio tests for the effect of removing each fixed effect term from a full longitudinal linear mixed effects model (following Bolker et al [50]).

*df = degrees freedom, ΔAIC = change in AIC associated with removal of each model term, LRT (χ2) = the χ2 test statistic associated with the change in likelihood with removal of each model term. All models share a single random effect of trap location (example specification: lme(log(Pred.bio+1) ∼ samp.day*Treatment, random = ∼1 | Location, data = PoolCompAll.d.r, correlation = corCompSymm(form = ∼1 | Location), method = “ML”)). Only responses with a treatment effect are shown here.
