Distance sampling with camera traps [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 * Reliable estimates of animal density and abundance are essential for effective wildlife conservation and management. Camera trapping has proven efficient for sampling multiple species, but statistical estimators of density from camera trapping data for species that cannot be individually identified are still in development. * We extend point-transect
