The range of the highest density interval (95% HDI), the probability of direction (PD) of an effect, and the percentage of the posterior distributions of the effects in ROPE (% ROPE; the region of practical equivalence) are shown. WetN represents species not associated with wetland habitats, WetY represents species occupying wetland habitats, and Wetdiff represents the difference between trends in WetN and WetY.
