Monitoring trends in sea turtle populations: walk or fly?
Monitoring animal populations is essential to conservation, and complex monitoring goals require complex resources. Variable detection probabilities can create uncertainty in trends and abundances estimated from point count surveys (e.g. nest counts), as

Harbour Porpoise Abundance in Portugal over a 5-Year Period and Estimates of Potential Distribution
The Iberian porpoise population is small and under potentially unsustainable removal by fisheries bycatch. Recently, a marine Site of Community Importance (SCI) was legally approved in Portugal, but no measures ensued to promote porpoise conservation ...

Visibility of St Lawrence belugas to aerial photography, estimated by direct observation
The depleted population of belugas (Delphinapterus leucas) inhabiting the St Lawrence estuary, Canada, was monitored by periodic photographic aerial surveys. In order to correct counts made on aerial survey film and to obtain an estimate of the true size
