Consequences of migratory distance, habitat distribution and season on the migratory process in a short distance migratory shorebird population

Table 2 Estimates and SE output from linear mixed model (LMM). A type III analysis of variance (Satterthwaite’s method) was used to test for differences in flight and stopover duration (measured with MDLs) between seasons and the migration distance to winter site¹
