Construction and performance of a novel capture-mark-release moth trap [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Mark-recapture studies can provide important information about moth movement as well as habitat preference across a landscape, but to date, such studies tend to be species-specific or require labor-intensive methodologies.

Towards the mother-of-all-models: customised construction of the mark-recapture likelihood function [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2004
With a proliferation of mark–recapture models and studies collecting mark–recapture data, software and analysis methods are being continually revised. We consider the construction of the likelihood for a general model that incorporates all the features ...

When is a parasite not a parasite? Effects of larval tick burdens on white-footed mouse survival [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Many animal species can carry considerable burdens of ectoparasites: parasites living on the outside of a host's body. Ectoparasite infestation can decrease host survival, but the magnitude and even direction of survival effects can vary depending on the

Reliability of catch per unit effort (CPUE) for evaluation of reintroduction programs – A comparison of the mark-recapture method with standardized trapping

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
Catch per unit effort (CPUE) is used as a standardized trapping method by local fishermen and in monitoring studies. In this study, CPUE was compared with population estimates made with a capture-recapture method based on the passive ...

Survival and recruitment of the multimammate mouse, Mastomys natalensis (Smith 1834), in a rice agro-ecosystem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigated the recruitment and survival of the multimammate mouse, Mastomys natalensis, within irrigated rice and fallow field habitats at different time periods related to rice crop growth stages.

Trap configuration and spacing influences parameter estimates in spatial capture-recapture models. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
An increasing number of studies employ spatial capture-recapture models to estimate population size, but there has been limited research on how different spatial sampling designs and trap configurations influence parameter estimators.

Low genetic variability, female-biased dispersal and high movement rates in an urban population of Eurasian badgersMeles meles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
1. Urban and rural populations of animals can differ in their behaviour, both in order to meet their ecological requirements and due to the constraints imposed by different environments.

Variation in fine-scale genetic structure and local dispersal patterns between peripheral populations of a South American passerine bird [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Indexación: Scopus.The distribution of suitable habitat influences natal and breeding dispersal at small spatial scales, resulting in strong microgeographic genetic structure.

Evaluating trends in abundance of immature green turtles, Chelonia mydas, in the Greater Caribbean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Many long-lived marine species exhibit life history traits. that make them more vulnerable to overexploitation. Accurate population trend analysis is essential for development and assessment of management plans for these species. However, because many of

Mobile application for wildlife capture–mark–recapture data collection and query

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Capture–mark–recapture (CMR) approaches are often used in the management and conservation of wildlife species and effective approaches to estimate populations rely on accurate data‐collection techniques.
