Red indicates best fit. We use the AIC weight to determine which model best suits our data. The values in our table represent AIC weights for each of the 9 models we tested (BM, OU, EB, and 6 pulsed models). In all cases the pulsed models were favoured as compared to the non-pulsed models. However, each pulsed model had very similar weights, which make it difficult to determine which pulsed model is better. For that reason, we club them together and report the highest AIC weight. %I The Royal Society
