Top models (≤ 2 ΔAICc) for predicting late‐season (February–March) tricolored bat ( Perimyotis subflavus ) body mass (g) and proportion of body mass loss in culverts located in Georgia, USA, November–March, 2018–2022.

Note: Table includes number of parameters (K), Akaike's Information Criterion corrected for small sample size (AICc), difference between a model and the model with the lowest AICc value (ΔAICc), and model weight (ω _i ). Site was included as a random effect in all models, and female was designated as the reference group for the sex covariate.
