From: Novel species interactions: American black bears respond to Pacific herring spawn
Random forest partial dependencies of Pacific herring egg estimated dietary content (EDC) with predictor variables. Partial dependencies of Pacific herring egg estimated dietary content (EDC) with a 14-day mean Pacific herring egg mass (kg d.w.), b amphipod (Traskorchestia spp.) mass (kg d.w.), c day of the year, d year and e beach location in Quatsino Sound, British Columbia, Canada. Pacific herring egg EDC was obtained from an analysis of black bear scats (n = 163).
