ψA = occupancy of dominant species; ψBA = occupancy of subordinate species when the dominant species is present; ψBa = occupancy of subordinate species when the dominant species is absent; rA = probability of dominant species being detected when the subordinate species is present; pA = probability of dominant species being detected when the subordinate species is absent; pB = probability of subordinate species being detected when the dominant species is not present; rBA = probability of subordinate species being detected when the dominant species is present and detected; rBa = probability of subordinate species being detected when the dominant species is present but not detected; Phi = ratio of how much more (>1) or less (<1) likely the species are to co-occur at a site compared to what would be expected if the species occurred independently of each other; Delta = ratio of how much more (>1) or less (<1) likely the species are to be detected together in a survey compared to what would be expected if they were detected independently.
