^aAbbreviations: prod, primary productivity; human, log number of humans within 200 km; temp, minimum monthly temperature; complexity, complexity of reef structure; area, area of reef. Model set A includes the temperature variable, whereas model set B includes reef area.

^bThe model with the highest posterior weight in each case is indicated with an asterisk.
