Reliability of trans‐generational genetic mark–recapture (tGMR) for enumerating Pacific salmon

Evolutionary Applications
As Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) decline across much of their range, it is imperative to further develop minimally invasive tools to quantify population abundance.

Do capture and survey methods influence whether marked animals are representative of unmarked animals?

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2015
Radiocollared animals are frequently used to estimate detection probabilities in aerial surveys. The aircraft used to conduct these surveys may also have been used to aid in the capture of these animals, and recently captured animals may react to hearing

Rapid screening of staphylokinase protein variants using an unpurified cell‐free expression system

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An unpurified cell‐free protein synthesis (CFPS) platform enables rapid functional screening of staphylokinase variants. Direct plasminogen‐activation assays performed in microplate format provide real‐time activity readouts, allowing rapid identification and ranking of variants with improved or reduced fibrinolytic activity without protein ...

Comparative efficacy of sign surveys, spotlighting and audio playbacks in a landscape-scale carnivore survey [PDF]

, 2010
Many carnivores are difficult and labour-intensive to detect, often leading to prohibitively high effort and cost in large-scale surveys. However, such studies provide information that is important for effective management and conservation.

Estimating Species Abundance from Presence–Absence Maps by Kernel Estimation

, 2023
We present a novel method for estimating species abundance using presence–absence maps. Our approach takes the spatial context into consideration, distinguishing it from conventional methods.

Using statistical population reconstruction to estimate the effect of pelt prices on river otter abundance and harvest vulnerability in Kentucky

Frontiers in Mammal Science
IntroductionAccurately estimating the abundance, survival rates, and harvest vulnerability of harvested populations of North American river otters (Lontra canadensis) is essential for their effective management and conservation.

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.

Environmental, behavioral, and design-related factors affect accuracy and precision of beluga abundance estimates from aerial surveys

Frontiers in Marine Science
Abundance estimation of wildlife populations is frequently derived from systematic survey data. Accuracy and precision of estimates, however, depend on the number of replicate surveys, and on adjustments made for animals unavailable to (availability bias)
