From: Short-term benefits of prescribed fire to bird communities of dry forests
Statistically supported occupancy parameter estimates (posterior median) and 90% BCIs describing treatment effects (\({\hat{\beta}}_{CBI\times PER}\)) and post-treatment CBI relationships (\({\hat{\beta}}_{CBI}+{\hat{\beta}}_{CBI\times PER}\)) for 25 species observed at locations with historically mixed-severity fire regimes. Estimates from a primary model (A, B) are compared with those from supplemental models that included data from additional years and a Markovian persistence effect (C) or separated effects by post-treatment year (D, E). Treatment effects describe the extent to which occupancy shifted towards or away from burned sites with treatment application, whereas CBI (composite burn index) relationships quantify the post-treatment correlation only
