  1. Only best performed models (with Δ < 2.0) are presented. The number of predictors (k), the Akaike information criterion score (AIC), the difference between the given model and the most parsimonious model (Δ) and Akaike weight (w) are listed for each model. The models with highest (w) are marked in bold; and the best fitted model according to recommendation of Arnold (2010) are marked in italic bold.
