(α) and (δ) parameters are covariates for the conditional probability of eDNA presence in a sample (θ) and for its detection (p). (β) parameters are covariates of the estimated occupancy (ψ). Means represent estimated parameter values and last two columns represent the boundaries of the 95% credible intervals.
