Summary of models examining survival of American Dippers in the Chilliwack River Valley.

Models are ranked based on their AICc and ΔAICc with the top model having a ΔAICc = 0. We also provide the AIC weights (wi), the model likelihood (Likelihood), the number of model parameters (K) and the deviance (Dev). We only provide information on strongly supported models (ΔAICc cwt—constant during the migration-breeding periods, variable during winter periods; mbtwc—variable during the migration-breeding periods, constant during winter periods; season—migration-breeding, early winter and late winter; scwc—migration-breeding periods vs winter periods,. —constant survival during all time periods. All models parameterize resighting probabilities using p(m*month).Summary of models examining survival of American Dippers in the Chilliwack River Valley.
