Figure Lengend Snippet: Model comparison for reduced general unified threshold models of survival of fathead minnow (GUTS‐RED‐stochastic death [SD]) across five different fish species: ( A ) sheepshead minnow, ( B ) common carp, ( C ) bluegill, ( D ) rainbow trout, and ( E ) fathead minnow (calibration was performed with acute and early life stage test). Estimated parameters for GUTS‐RED‐SD are dominant rate constant, threshold for effects, killing rate constant, and background mortality. For openGUTS versions, the best fit (dot) and 95% confidence interval (horizontal line) are displayed; for morse, the median (dot) and 95% credible intervals (horizontal line) of the posterior distributions are displayed. zw = threshold for effects; hb = background mortality; k D = dominant rate constant; bw = killing rate constant.
Article Snippet: We applied three different GUTS softwares, including two openGUTS implementations (MATLAB® Ver 1.1 and Windows® Ver 1.1) and the statistical software R (R Foundation for Statistical Computing, ) package “morse” (Ver 3.2.5; Baudrot et al., ).
