Additional tables showing the capture-mark-recapture model rankings using increasing values of over-dispersion. The additional tables demonstrate the change in information-theoretic (wQAICc) ranking of models examining the effects of density, age, sex, time and the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) on apparent survival (ϕ) and recapture probability (p) of southern elephant seals (Mirounga leonina) at Macquarie Island with increasing values of over-dispersion (ĉ).
