How to include autocorrelation in GLMM and what to do with false convergence warning message appearing after including an interaction term

Hello,

 >false convergence warning message

standardising your covariates often helps - and improves the 
interpretability of the model results, too. e.g. see 
http://modelsforinsight.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/2010-Schielzeth.pdf

 >I think there has to be some autocorrelation between each 30 seconds 
unit of analyis and need to include it in my model but do not know how!

not straightfoward for GLMMs, see the GLMM wike page 
(http://glmm.wikidot.com/faq) under "Spatial and temporal correlation 
models, heteroscedasticity ("R-side" models)"


HTH

Cheers,
Luca
