Table 1. Summary of generalized linear mixed-effects models evaluating successional, spatial, and seasonal changes in seed rain, seed dispersal mode, and diaspore size in tropical secondary forests of southern Bahia, Brazil.
| Fixed Effects | Seed density (#/m2/month) | Seed dispersal mode | Diaspore size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Forest age (y) | 25.96 | 1.93 | 16.05 |
| Distance from mature forest (m) | 4.27 | 0.40 | 0.73 |
| Month | 98.66 | 146.87 | 102.60 |
| Marginal R2 (%) | 16.37 | 14.24 | 2.14 |
| Conditional R2 (%) | 98.81 | 73.01 | 11.36 |
Marginal and conditional R2 represent model variation, explained by fixed effects and the combination of fixed and random effects, respectively. For fixed effects, values are χ2statistics; bold and italicized values are statistically significant at α = 0.05.
