PROVIDING RELIABLE AND ACCURATE GENETIC CAPTURE–MARK–RECAPTURE ESTIMATES IN A COST-EFFECTIVE WAY

Journal of Wildlife Management, 2004
Abstract Capture–mark–recapture (CMR) estimates assume no misidentification of individuals captured and are extremely sensitive to identification errors. A large body of published literature has demonstrated that non-invasively derived genetic tags are error-prone, and the potential biases associated with these errors are large.

Hierarchical Bayesian analysis of capture–mark–recapture data

Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2002
We present a hierarchical Bayesian model (HBM) for capture–mark–recapture (CMR) data analysis. It aims at estimating the probability of capture (θi) and the total population size (Ni) in a series of I years i = 1,...,I. The HBM assumes that the θis and Nis are sampled from a common probability distribution with unknown parameters.

Application of genetic capture-mark-recapture methods for invasive wild pigs

2023
Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are a highly destructive invasive species across the globe, making them subject to intensive management including lethal control. Robust estimates of population abundance are needed to assess and optimize the effectiveness of control efforts.

A pattern-based tool for long-term, large-sample capture-mark-recapture studies of fire salamanders Salamandra species (Amphibia: Urodela: Salamandridae)

Acta Herpetologica, 2017
Solid population studies depend on reliable capture-mark-recapture (CMR) methodology. The available methods for such studies on amphibians are often invasive, unsuitable for long-term studies, time-consuming and/or expensive.

Capture-mark-recapture to estimate the number of missed articles for systematic reviews in surgery

The American Journal of Surgery, 2013
Systematic reviews are an important knowledge synthesis tool, but with new literature available each day, reviewers must balance identifying all relevant literature against timely synthesis.This study tested capture-mark-recapture (CMR), an ecology-based technique, to estimate the total number of articles in the literature identified in a systematic ...

Optimising the design and analysis of capture-mark-recapture experiments using individual-based models

Frontiers in Marine Science
Capture-mark-recapture methods (CMR) are a commonly used tool in species conservation and management for the estimation of demographic parameters in a population. However, biases in these estimates can occur due to the heterogeneity in processes influencing recapture data or the experimental design.

Capture�mark�recapture, removal sampling, and occupancy models

2009
Abstract Understanding the distribution and abundance of organisms is frequently stated as the objective of ecological investigations (Elton 1927; Krebs 1972). Similarly, distribution and abundance are primary criteria used to classify the status of species (e.g. threatened, endangered) for conservation purposes (Gardenfors et al. 2001).
