Table 1. List of study species and range of previously published estimates of annual survival. Estimates printed in italics are return rates and would likely be higher if mark-recapture analytical methods had been used to estimate apparent survival. † American Ornithologists Union species code, used to denote species throughout this manuscript. Source of published estimate: 1 DeSante and Kaschube (2006); 2 Strickland and Ouellet (1993); 3 Rosenberg et al. (1999); 4 Nott and DeSante (2002); 5 Gardali et al. (2003); 6 Roberts (1971); 7 Stewart (1988); 8 DeSante et al. (1998); 9 Sandercock and Jaramillo (2002); 10 Karr et al. (1990); 11 Nolan et al. (2002). § Calculated by averaging the annual survival estimates presented in Table 3 across landscape types and (where applicable) sexes.
