Factors hypothesized to influence patterns of carnivore occurrence in Mole National Park (MNP), with the corresponding index used, predicted direction of effect (i.e., negative or positive influence on occurrence, or both), source of data, and range of values across sampled sites.

aRange of values for sampled camera stations. Data were normalized and standardized prior to analysis.
bPrey species are listed in Table S1. Species average adult body masses were taken from Jones et al. (2009). Total prey biomass was expected to have a greater influence on larger carnivores given the relative dominance of larger prey species. See Methods for details on the calculation of different indices from patrol and camera-trap data.
cNDVI = Normalized Difference Vegetation Index.
dSee Methods for details on the seasonal and integrated measures of NDVI.
