Context 1
... collected microhabitat data on 339 unique used locations (n = 280 THH, 59 RCT) and 674 random reference locations between the two sites ( Table 2). Locations that qualified for inclusion in the analyses consisted of 89 (mean per lizard = 5.2, range 1-11), 147 (mean = 5.3, range 1-18), 36 (mean = 2.1, range 1-5), and 67 (mean = 3.0, range 1-7) for the summer, fall, winter, and spring seasons, respectively. ...Context 2
... were found at locations with greater canopy cover, slope, woody plant, woody debris, and rocky refuge compared to the random reference locations during the summer season (Table 2). Model averaging indicated the primary covariates and canopy cover were important predictors of site use (Tables 3 and 4). ...Context 3
... canopy cover, woody plant, woody debris, and rocky refuge compared to random reference locations, but model averaging indicated the primary covariates along with grass/forbs were important predictors of fall microhabitat use. During the winter season, we saw a shift to locations with higher percentages of slope and rocky refuge (Table 2). Model averaging indicated the primary covariates were important predictors of winter microhabitat use along with slope to a lesser extent (Tables 3 and 4). ...
