Table 3.
Analysis of deviance table based on a generalized linear mixed‐effects model (binomial) explaining ungulate browsing frequency on naturally regenerated oak recruits among treatments and their interactions (excluding fence treatment). Browsing frequency measured in August corresponds to preceding summer browsing, measurements in April corresponds to preceding winter browsing
