APPENDIX B: COEFFICIENTS FOR EQUATIONS 



Terms and abbreviations appearing in these tables may need some explanation. Variables are de- 

 fined in table 3. Habitat type abbreviations are defined in table 2, footnote 1. Optimum aspect is 

 calculated using the procedure developed by Stage (1976). The poorest aspects are 180 degrees fi-om 

 the optimum. Amplitude for probability of stocking equations uses SLO = 0.3, TIME = 10 years, and 

 the probability of stocking centered on 0.5. Amplitude was not calculated when the optimum aspect 

 was not significant. NS stands for not significant at the 0.05 probability level. In this appendix foot- 

 notes appear in front of the items they refer to. That position should help avoid confusion with the 

 superscripts for "squared" in BAA^, TPSP^, and ELEV^.
