Apparent survival estimation from continuous mark–recapture/resighting data [PDF]
Summary The recent expansion of continuous‐resighting telemetry methods (e.g. acoustic receivers, PIT tag antennae) has created a class of ecological data not well suited for traditional mark–recapture statistics. Estimating survival when continuous recapture data is available ensues a practical problem, because classical capture–recapture models ...

A new approach to the “apparent survival” problem: estimating true survival rates from mark–recapture studies [PDF]
Survival estimates generated from live capture–mark–recapture studies may be negatively biased due to the permanent emigration of marked individuals from the study area. In the absence of a robust analytical solution, researchers typically sidestep this problem by simply reporting estimates using the term “apparent survival.” Here, we present a ...

Age‐specific survival of reintroduced swift fox in Badlands National Park and surrounding lands
In 2003, a reintroduction program was initiated at Badlands National Park (BNP), South Dakota, USA, with swift foxes (Vulpes velox) translocated from Colorado and Wyoming, USA, as part of a restoration effort to recover declining swift fox populations ...

Populations of Leach's Storm-petrel (Oceanodroma leucorhoa; hereafter storm-petrel), one of the most widespread procellariiform seabirds in the world, appear to be declining in many parts of their breeding range.

The first-year survival alters population growth rates and viability in birds, however this period remains the least-studied of the avian life stages. Here we present results of the 19 years of study of fledglings apparent survival of urban population of

Geometric Parameterization of $J/\Psi$ Absorption in Heavy Ion Collisions [PDF]
We calculate the survival probability of $J/\Psi$ particles in various colliding systems using a Glauber model. An analysis of recent data has reported a $J/\Psi$-nucleon breakup cross section of 6.2$\pm$0.7 mb derived from an exponential fit to the ...

Variable age structure and apparent density dependence in survival of adult ungulates [PDF]
SummaryLarge herbivores have strongly age‐structured populations. Because recruitment often decreases as population density increases, in unexploited populations the proportion of older adults may increase with density. Because survival senescence is typical of ungulates, ignoring density‐dependent changes in age structure could lead to apparent ...

Collection of blood from wild‐caught mice (Peromyscus) via submandibular venipuncture
ABSTRAC Submandibular venipuncture is a common technique used to harvest whole blood from laboratory‐strain mice, but its effectiveness on wild‐caught Peromyscus spp. has not been formally tested.

Reliable estimates of adult survival for many shorebird species are lacking. We used Cormack–Jolly–Seber (CJS) methods to provide an estimate of apparent, or local, survival (φ) of a population of whimbrels, Numenius phaeopus, breeding in the subarctic ...
