Conditional probability of selection of spline-based thermal cover as a function of temperature for Alaskan male moose by region in summer months (June–August). We used natural splines with two to three degrees of freedom to represent the relationship between canopy cover and temperature. The probability of selection of denser canopy increased significantly with temperature during summer for all four regions, where red lines indicated the 90% temperature percentiles of experienced temperature and the blue lines indicate the 10% temperature percentiles experienced temperature by region. Shaded bands represent a 95% confidence interval. Plots were created in the ‘ggplot2’ R package [94]
