Summary of estimated nuggets for the bird communities from 2008 to 2012.

“n/a” indicates that the model did not converge or that the values for nuggets were >1 or aCalculated from Jaccard Dissimilarity (1-D’) calculated with the cumulative species per plot over five years, i.e. all of the species observed at least once on the plot during this time period.bThe analysis was restricted to those plots with low inter-annual species turnover to determine if this influenced the high nuggets. Plots with turnover values higher than 60%, 70%, or 80% were excluded, see methods for details on the calculation of turnover.Summary of estimated nuggets for the bird communities from 2008 to 2012.
