Recursive Estimation in Capture-Recapture Methods

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1998
An important problem in statistical ecology is how to determine the size of an animal population. The best known technique is the capture-recapture technique.

Rates and Causes of Death in Chiradzulu District, Malawi, 2008: A Key Informant Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In September 2008, we measured all-cause mortality in Chiradzulu District, Malawi (population 291 000) over a 60-day retrospective period, using capture-recapture analysis of three lists of deaths provided by (i) key community informants, (ii) graveyard ...

Estimating the total number of phosphoproteins and phosphorylation sites in eukaryotic proteomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Phosphorylation is the most frequent post-translational modification made to proteins and may regulate protein activity as either a molecular digital switch or a rheostat.

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 ...

Newcastle disease virus transmission dynamics in wild peridomestic birds in the United Arab Emirates

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
To understand the dynamics of a pathogen in an animal population, one must assess how the infection status of individuals changes over time. With wild animals, this can be very challenging because individuals can be difficult to trap and sample, even ...

Evaluating Bicarbonate Electrolyzer Configurations for Energy‐Efficient Formate Production

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Reactive carbon capture (RCC) with bicarbonate electrolyzers (BEs) offers an efficient alternative to gas‐fed CO2 electrolyzers by eliminating regeneration and pressurization steps. This study optimizes BE configurations and compares RCC chains to gas‐fed carbon chains for formate production.

Modeling trap-awareness and related phenomena in capture-recapture studies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Trap-awareness and related phenomena whereby successive capture events are not independent is a feature of the majority of capture-recapture studies. This phenomenon was up to now difficult to incorporate in open population models and most authors have ...

A unified likelihood-based approach for estimating population size in continuous-time capture-recapture experiments with frailty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A unified likelihood-based approach is proposed to estimate population size for a continuous-time closed capture-recapture experiment with frailty. The frailty model allows the capture intensity to vary with individual heterogeneity, time, and behavioral

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 ...
