Unbiased Structure Prediction of Sophisticated Cage Structures

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We introduce the software and workflow for automated, unbiased exploration of all possible connectivities of a given set of building blocks and their stoichiometry to predict stable cage structures. ABSTRACT Cage structure prediction has made significant strides by generating structures based on what the community has seen before.

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 ...

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 ...

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.

A generalised likelihood framework for partially observed capture-recapture-recovery models

open access: yes, 2013
We provide a closed form likelihood expression for multi-state mark-recapture-recovery data when the state of an individual may be only partially observed.

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.

Evidence of high longevity in an Island lacertid, Teira dugesii (Milne-Edwards, 1829). First data on wild specimens

open access: yesActa Herpetologica, 2012
Using the technique of capture, mark and recapture, here is reported a case of high longevity in the Madeiran lizard, Teira dugesii. It is one of the highest reported values for lacertid lizards (16 years or more) in a wild population.

A non-technical overview of spatially explicit capture-recapture models

open access: yes, 2010
Most capture-recapture studies are inherently spatial in nature, with capture probabilities depending on the location of traps relative to animals. The spatial component of the studies has until recently, however, not been incorporated in statistical ...

Spring migration of Ruffs Philomachus pugnax in Fryslân: estimates of staging duration using resighting data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Seasonal bird migration involves long flights, but most time is actually spent at intermediate staging areas. The duration of stay at these sites can be evaluated with mark–recapture methods that employ day-to-day local encounters of individually marked ...

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...
