2009 female ranks are now in babase.
As Jeanne noted earlier regarding Viola's group, the groups (except Omo's)
are getting to a size where it is increasingly difficult to discern what is
occurring as the number of observations of agonisms gets spread out across
more and more individuals. Weaver's group was also particularly challenging
due to the very thin data we had on that group in 2008 - we are quite
certain we missed a number of rank changes during 2008 and cannot be sure
how many or how well we have captured them in the 2009 ranks - there may be
more work to go on straightening those out. Nyayo's was also very noisy.
Additionally, please note the following revisions made to 2008 ranks.
2008 revisions:
Linda's group - Liwaza's credit over Lancaster in April 2008 was rescinded,
such that for that month LAN is rank 9 and LIW is rank 10. This reversal of
rank between the two is carried forward through August (with LAN at rank 10
and LIW at rank 11 from May through August). Additionally, in September,
Little is given credit over Liwaza, producing LAN rank 10, LIT rank 11, LIW
rank 12. This rank order remains in place through December 2008. Only the
switch in ranks between LAN and LIW is present in the ADF ranks, as LIT was
a juvenile at the time.
Nyayo's group - Durian's last demotion in November 2008 was rescinded,
leaving her at rank 18, below Scenic and above Humble, as she had been in
October. This rank carries forward to December 2008.
