Table 3.
Results of linear and unimodal models for relationship of moth diversity indexes (alpha diversity, gamma diversity, and abundance) to mean NDVI for each focal moth group. Coefficients of determination (R2) are indicated, with the model p-values (n.s. p ≥ 0.05, * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001).
