Each stage can vary by intercept, year trend, annual random effect, period random effect and period within annual random effect. All values are provided on the log-odds scale. Variation from random effects is stochastic. Year is scaled to Year - 1 for trend, which ensures that the intercept is the rate in the first year.
A vector of the intercept of the log-odds survival by stage.
A whole number of the number of years.
A vector of the effect of an increase of one year on the log-odds survival by stage.
A vector of the standard deviation of the annual variation of the log-odds survival by stage.
A vector of the standard deviation of the period variation of the log-odds survival by stage.
A vector of the standard deviation of the period within annual variation on the log-odds survival by stage.
A whole number of the number of periods in a year.
An array of survival rates with dimensions period, year, stage.
