Table 4. Multiple regression of environmental parameters significantly correlated with relative C. riparius frequencies (forward selection).
variable | β | b | p |
Prec Wettest Month (July) | 2.60 | 34.90 | 0.007 |
Mean Prec Wettest Quarter (May–July) | 2.18 | 36.33 | 0.020 |
CaCO3 | −0.69 | −0.60 | 0.102 |
Conductivity | 0.47 | 0.89 | 0.225 |
