Data for bihourly brooding patterns models

Data table for linear mixed models (LMMs) examining whether nestling-stage temperature and nest characteristics predicted bihourly brooding patterns (Tables 1 & 2 of published article). Column headings: Year: year of nest construction; Plot: low, mid, or high elevation study plot; Female: unique female identifier; Nest: unique nest identifier; Window: identity of 2-h window over which measurements were averaged; Elevation: elevation of nest site in m; MeanOffboutDuration: mean brooding off-bout duration in s over 2-h window; OffboutFrequency: brooding off-bout frequency per h over 2-h window; PercentTimeOff: proportion of time female was off the nest over 2-h window; MeanAmbTemp: mean temperature in degrees C recorded over 2-h window; BroodSize: mean number of nestlings in the nest over days 3-5 of the nestling stage; Fledge: whether nest fledged young (1) or not (0); Hatch: date nestlings hatched; JDHatch: Julian date that nestlings hatched.

Data were collected from a breeding population of the migratory Black-throated Blue Warbler at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF), Woodstock, New Hampshire, USA (43.93N, 71.75W), from 2010-2013.
