Table 2 Model averaged coefficients, unconditional standard errors (SE), and 95% upper confidence interval (UCI) and lower confidence interval (LCI) for competing (ΔQAICc < 2) negative binomial mixed models of bat activity by species for Warm Springs Mountain, Bath County, Virginia, USA, 24 May to 2 August 2015. *Myotis septentrionalis and Myotis sodalis were not model averaged and individual estimates, standard errors, and 95% upper lower confidence intervals for the top negative binomial mixed model of bat activity are presented

From: Bat activity following repeated prescribed fire in the central Appalachians, USA
