LOCAL RECRUITMENT IN THE GREATER FLAMINGO: A NEW APPROACH USING CAPTURE–MARK–RECAPTURE DATA [PDF]

open access: yesEcology, 1997
Although the establishment of new individuals in the breeding component of a population is an essential feature of population regulation, only a few attempts have been made to test biological hypotheses about recruitment. Most previous studies rely on ad hoc calculations or are flawed with unwarranted assumptions about survival.

Estimating Population Size with Noninvasive Capture‐Mark‐Recapture Data

Conservation Biology, 2006
Abstract:  Estimating population size of elusive and rare species is challenging. The difficulties in catching such species has triggered the use of samples collected noninvasively, such as feces or hair, from which genetic analysis yields data similar to capture‐mark‐recapture (CMR) data.

Parsimonious modelling of capture―mark―recapture studies

Biometrics, 1985
A general multinomial modelling approach is proposed for capture-mark- recapture data from an open animal population. Within this framework a number of plausible alternative assumptions are suggested for survival probabilities, ingress times, and capture probabilities.

A review of designs for capture–mark–recapture studies in discrete time

Journal of Ornithology, 2012
Design is the most influential element in the pathway to statistical inference. Designs for capture–mark–recapture (CMR) studies have become more diverse and complex during the past 50 years. I review the history of CMR designs developed for discrete time models with a focus on the assumptions of those designs, the parameters that can be estimated, the

How the common vole copes with modern farming: Insights from a capture–mark–recapture experiment

Agriculture, Ecosystems and Environment, 2013
Abstract In this study, using capture–mark–recapture (CMR), a common vole population was monitored for one year in an experimental study site dominated by meadows, in which field management followed a gradient of intensiveness. The aim was to estimate the demographic response to agricultural practices of the common vole.

Monitoring the incidence of myocardial infarctions: applications of capture-mark-recapture technology.

International Journal of Epidemiology, 1992
It is critical to monitor the incidence of myocardial infarction. Typically, death certificates have been used as a proxy for incidence, however, these have been found to be crude as they lag behind changes in incidence. In the last decade several myocardial infarction registries have been established, however, these registries are still too limited in

The capture-mark-recapture technique can be used as a stopping rule when searching in systematic reviews.

Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 2009
Researchers have no empirically based search stopping rule when looking for potentially relevant articles for inclusion in systematic reviews. We tested a stopping strategy based on capture-mark-recapture (CMR; i.e., the Horizon Estimate) statistical modeling to estimate the total number of articles in the domain of clinical decision support tools for ...

THE OPTIMAL NUMBER OF MARKERS IN GENETIC CAPTURE–MARK–RECAPTURE STUDIES

Journal of Wildlife Management, 2004
McKelvey and Schwartz (2004, this issue) propose that the number of markers used to assign individual identity in DNA-based population inventories should be doubled or tripled relative to established practice, primarily to facilitate indirect statistical tests for genotyping errors.

Contribution of Capture-Mark-Recapture Modeling to Studies of Evolution by Natural Selection

, 2009
Capture-Mark-Recapture (CMR) modeling is one of the most commonly used estimation methods in population ecology of wild animals. Until recently, much of the emphasis of this method was on the estimation of abundance and survival probability. Despite common interest in estimation of such demographic parameters, evolutionary ecologists have often been ...
