Table 1 Multilevel Bayesian model of starvation resistance. Summary of multilevel Bayesian model of starvation resistance incorporating environmental and metabolic parameters (top) and behavioral parameters (bottom). Effect represents the mean of the posterior distribution for the parameters in the model. For example, the estimate of LD50 (starvation resistance) is reduced for males relative to females for both metabolism and behavior. Similarly, the Panama City population (PC) has reduced starvation resistance relative to Maine. Est. Error is the estimate of the error; l-95% and u-95% are the lower and upper credible intervals
