This study demonstrates that the mobile laser scanning (MLS) sampling density required to reliably characterise vegetation structure increases with a site's structural complexity. Applying a five‐level acquisition framework across open woodland, closed forest and sub‐alpine woodland ecosystems, we found that longer scanning paths increased the ...

Exploring mark-resighting-recovery models to study savannah tree demographics [PDF]
Despite their sessile nature, juvenile trees in savannah ecosystems are not always easy to encounter. Here, the remedy of choice in animal studies, capture-recapture modelling, is evaluated with respect to plants.

Abstract The previous seismic events indicated the vulnerability of old reinforced concrete (RC) structures against earthquakes due to the absence of seismic detailing and capacity design specifications in such buildings. In this context, beam‐column joints (BCJ) of the existing RC structures built before the 1970s have exhibited poor structural ...

The size and distribution of home ranges reflect how individuals within a population use, defend, and share space and resources, and may thus be an important predictor of population‐level dynamics.

Estimating fault numbers remaining after testing
Testing is an essential component of the software development process, but also one which is exceptionally difficult to manage and control. For example, it is well understood that testing techniques are not guaranteed to detect all faults, but more ...

One of the most difficult challenges for wildlife managers is reliably estimating wildlife populations. Camera traps combined with spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models are a popular tool for population estimation. They have limitations, however, including long data processing times.

Capture-recapture studies with incomplete mixed categorical and continuous covariates
Registrations in epidemiological studies suffer from incompleteness, thus a general consensus is to use capture-recapture models. Inclusion of covariates which relate to the capture probabilities has been shown to improve the estimate of population size.

Capture-recapture datasets with environmental covariates
Files gathering capture-recapture data of Montagu's harrier for each site (RO, adults and juveniles, ML adults only). Are included the environmental covariates for breeding and wintering grounds used for the Capture-recapture analyses (standardised ...

Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species.
