Tukey Contrasts Estimate s.e. P-value
Heavy - Undisturbed 2.00 0.71 0.013
Moderate - Undisturbed 0.77 0.52 0.300
Moderate - Heavy −1.22 0.70 0.183

Both the full model containing, treatment, complete (whether the brood size equalled the clutch size), and year, and a minimal model containing just treatment are presented. Pairwise significances were determined using Tukey's post-hoc analysis, estimate, standard error and p-values are presented.
