Figures

Fig. 1 Location of six sites along the Hume Freeway: circles = sites with trees in the median (Trees), triangles = sites without trees in the median (No-Trees), and two control sites (stars), in northeastern Victoria, Australia (State of Victoria shown in square in top left corner). The insert shows diagrams of the road intersection layout at Trees, No-Trees, and control sites, where diagonal lines indicate cleared agricultural land.

Fig. 4 Proportion of squirrel gliders ( Petaurus norfolcensis ) that were observed crossing (complete and partial crossings) the Hume Freeway or at secondary roads (control). Males are shown in black, females in clear. Number of gliders in each treatment is shown above columns.

Fig. 5 Proportion of fixes for 23 squirrel gliders ( Petaurus norfolcensis ) that made partial (clear columns) and complete (solid columns) crossings of the Hume Freeway at sites with and without tall trees in the centre median (Trees and No Trees, respectively) and secondary roads (Control). Sex of individuals is given on X-axis and total number of detections given above each column. Data for animals that were not detected crossing is not shown.

Fig. 6 Mean predicted probability that a squirrel glider ( Petaurus norfolcensis ) resident in habitat adjacent to a road will make a partial, i.e., verge to median or median to verge, or complete crossing at different site types. There was no significant difference in the likelihood that an individual will cross a secondary road or the dual-roadway Hume Freeway with trees in the median, and these are pooled (denoted Control/Trees). No Trees are sites at the Hume Freeway without trees in the median. Males and females are shown. Error bars are the 95% credible intervals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
