Model structure: ψ, vector occurrence probabilities; p, vector detection probabilities, conditioned on occurrence (in parentheses, covariate names, with “.” denoting no covariate in that part of the model). AIC, Akaike information criterion; N, number of sampling units; k, number of parameters; β, estimated slope parameter; SE, standard error.
