Table 1 List of summary information for fitted generalized additive models testing temporal pattern (daily and seasonal) in habitat selection by moose in Eastern Poland (GAM1-7). GAM8 described temporal pattern in a cumulative selection of habitats (sum of absolute values of β coefficients of all habitat considered except for distance to road and distance to settlements). edf – estimated degrees of freedom for the model terms; × – interaction between variables.
