Table 1.
Output of statistical analysis. (a) Interaction between night part (the time of night; evening/morning, split at one hour after astronomical midnight) and light treatment combination (six principal combinations: dark–white, dark–green, dark–red, white–green, white–red, and green–red) on the ratio (success/failure) of bats passing through the corresponding light treatment in either culvert, with treatment orientation (with two levels indicating whether the principal treatment combinations were oriented east–west or west–east), and with night number as a random term. (b) Effect of light treatment combination on the ratio (success/failure) of the total number of bats per night passing through the corresponding light treatment in either culvert
