Table 2. Model selection results for apparent survival for 293 fall-migrating Least Sandpipers in the Lower Mississippi River Alluvial Valley during Fall 2002. Models were ranked by ascending ΔAICc. Time is represented by t followed by the constancy interval. The terms ciad, ci, and cijv represent condition index of adults, condition index of all birds, and condition index of juveniles, respectively. T and TT represent linear and quadratic time trends, respectively.
