Table 1.
Adjusted repeatabilities (intra-class correlation [ICC], with standard error [SE] and confidence intervals [CI]) for the timing of Eastern Whip-poor-will migration events, after controlling for fixed effects
| Migration event | Model | Tracks | Ind | Variation from random effect (ICC) | ICC SE | Lower ICC CI | Upper ICC CI | P |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Autumn departure date | doy ~ 1 + (1|individual) | 48 | 39 | 0.77 | 0.13 | 0.48 | 0.93 | 0.001 |
| doy ~ area + (1|individual) | 48 | 39 | 0.63 | 0.18 | 0.22 | 0.9 | 0.003 | |
| doy ~ area × SeptFullMoon + (1|individual) | 48 | 39 | 0.64 | 0.15 | 0.36 | 0.94 | 0.002 | |
| Lat 35°N crossing | doy ~ area × SeptFullMoon + (1|individual) | 55 | 40 | 0.6 | 0.15 | 0.29 | 0.88 | 0.005 |
| Lat 30°N crossing | doy ~ area × SeptFullMoon + (1|individual) | 51 | 39 | 0.67 | 0.14 | 0.37 | 0.93 | 0.01 |
| Winter arrival date | doy ~ area × SeptFullMoon + (1|individual) | 36 | 31 | 0.8 | 0.12 | 0.59 | 0.99 | 0.018 |
Competing models are only reported for autumn departure date. doy = ordinal day of year. area = sampling area. SeptFullMoon = date of September full moon. Tracks = total number of samples collected. Ind = total number of individuals tracked. Sample sizes include both single- and repeat-tracked birds.
