Model statistics include the number of parameters per model (K), the Akaike Information Criteria score corrected for small sample size (AICc), the difference in the AICc score from the best-supported model (∆AICc), the explanatory value of each model (AICcWt), and the Area Under the Curve (AUC), denoting the predictive capability of each model. Model variables include: binned land cover types including forest, open land, and development (NLCD); road traits including the number of lanes and route type (TR); and the density of road per 1000 m buffer (DN). Interaction terms include the route type designation of township, municipal, state, US, or interstate (RT), surrounding forest cover (FR), and surrounding road density (DN). Best-supported models (those within two AICc units of the top model) are italicized.
