Each model was fit with a subset of individuals (training data) and validated with all remaining individuals. Reported results include sample size (n), precent of individuals correctly classified to stressful temperature treatments (21 and 23° for Chinook salmon and 23°C for coho salmon), sensitivity and specificity.
