Table 2.
Results from generalized additive mixed-effects models (GAMMs) with soil temperature and soil water as smooth terms. Variance and standard deviations (in brackets) are given for the random effects used in models. Bold F-values are statistically significant (***: p<0.001, **: p<0.01, *: p<0.05.)
