Table 2. Estimates of dhole habitat occupancy at landscape-scale (Western Ghats, India, 2006–2007) and habitat-use at reserve-scale (Bandipur) generated using spatially replicated sign surveys under the model [54] incorporating spatial auto-correlation of sign detections.
| Naïve | Ψ (SE) | θ0 (SE) | θ1 (SE) | pt (SE) | |
| Landscape-scale occupancy | 0.27 | 0.75 (0.32) | 0.03 (0.09) | 0.88 (0.04) | 0.19 (0.03) |
| Reserve-scale occupancy | 0.39 | 0.71 (0.12) | 0.01 (0.00) | 0.75 (0.04) | 0.78 (0.06) |
Please see Methods section for parameter descriptions.
Footnote: Here the parameters Ψ and pt are estimated only for the basic model with no covariates. Final estimates of these parameters were derived from covariate models.
