LMM output for female FCM level changes [z-ln (FCM concentration (ng/g))] in response to various ecological, physiological and social factors (comparison to control model [containing only ecological and physiological factors]: χ212,16 = 9.13, P = 0.06, ΔAIC = 1.13, N = 370 of 96 FPs; comparison to null model: χ23,16 = 16.09, P = 0.24, ΔAIC = 9.91). All fixed and control effects with P < 0.05 are indicated in bold. z, fixed effect variable was z-transformed prior to analysis; C, control factor; F, fixed effect
