Table 2 Effect size (β), standard error (SE), and lower (LCI) and upper (UCI) 95% confidence intervals of explanatory variables for (a) the proportion of time spent in water,(b) travel speed, and (c) distance from the shore when on land of 25 GPS-tagged Eurasian beavers in southeast Norway (2009–2016). We performed model averaging of best models (∆AICc < 4) to estimate the effect size of each variable. Informative parameters are presented in bold.
