  1. The first column shows the results for all images in the sample, including those where – according to the GS and CS data – no chicks were present. The second column presents the results for the sample of images where chicks were present, according to the GS and/or CS classifications. When extracting Penguin Watch data, probability_of_chick was set to >0.5 (see ‘Explanation of terms’).
