| Jul 19, 2024 at 13:43 | comment | added | Frans Rodenburg | The sites in your sample can be thought of as random draw from a larger, normally distributed population of all sites you could have chosen. This is why it makes sense to model site as random and year as fixed. There may be a cyclic effect of the seasons throughout the year, but the effect of time is still fixed. So the answer is neither, you have only one random effect. | |
