aGeneralized linear mixed model to assess the probability to be in stopover or in movement under static (habitat) and dynamic (weather) conditions.

bMixed conditional logistic regression model to assess the resource selection under static (habitat) and dynamic (weather) conditions.

Models are evaluated for each behavioral state.
