Table 1 Conditional probabilities of fox sightings in Vienna from 2010 to 2015 for all land use classes with a positive association with fox sightings with \(P\left( {{\text{E|B}}_{\text{j}} } \right)\) > 0.27

From: Fox sightings in a city are related to certain land use classes and sociodemographics: results from a citizen science project

  1. Land use classes in descending order of \(P\left( {{\text{E|B}}_{\text{j}} } \right)\); the higher \(P\left( {{\text{E|B}}_{\text{j}} } \right)\), the higher the probability of a fox sighting \(P\left( {E \cap B_{j} } \right)\) is the relative frequency of fox sightings in land use class \(B_{j}\), \(P\left( {B_{j} } \right)\) is its share in the study area
