Accurate recapture identification for genetic mark–recapture studies with error-tolerant likelihood-based match calling and sample clustering [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
Error-tolerant likelihood-based match calling presents a promising technique to accurately identify recapture events in genetic mark–recapture studies by combining probabilities of latent genotypes and probabilities of observed genotypes, which may ...

Simple Estimation and Test Procedures in Capture–Mark–Recapture Mixed Models [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrics, 2011
SummaryThe need to consider in capture‐recapture models random effects besides fixed effects such as those of environmental covariates has been widely recognized over the last years. However, formal approaches require involved likelihood integrations, and conceptual and technical difficulties have slowed down the spread of capture–recapture mixed ...

Integrating telemetry data at several scales with spatial capture–recapture to improve density estimates

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Accurate population estimates are essential for monitoring and managing wildlife populations. Mark–recapture sampling methods have regularly been used to estimate population parameters for rare and cryptic species, including the federally listed Mojave ...

Expanding the feasibility of fish and wildlife assessments with close‐kin mark–recapture

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is a powerful new method for the assessment of fish and wildlife population dynamics. Unlike traditional mark–recapture techniques, the use of kinship as an identifying mark is robust to many forms of capture heterogeneity

Recapture heterogeneity in cliff swallows: increased exposure to mist nets leads to net avoidance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Ecologists often use mark-recapture to estimate demographic variables such as abundance, growth rate, or survival for samples of wild animal populations.

Bayesian mark–recapture–resight–recovery models: increasing user flexibility in the BUGS language

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Estimating demographic parameters of interest is a critical component of applied conservation biology and evolutionary ecology, where demographic models and demographic data have become increasingly complex over the last several decades.

Integrating growth and survival models for flexible estimation of size‐dependent survival in a cryptic, endangered snake

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Estimates of demographic rates for animal populations and individuals have many applications for ecological and conservation research. In many animals, survival is size‐dependent, but estimating the form of the size–survival relationship presents ...

Estimating the population structure of Javan rhinos (Rhinoceros sondaicus) in Ujung Kulon National Park using the mark- recapture method based on video and camera trap identification

open access: yesPachyderm, 2011
The population structure of the Javan rhino (Rhinoceros sondaicus) in Ujung Kulon National Park (NP) in Banten, Indonesia was assessed using visual identification and mark-recapture estimation.

Monitoring Brazilian Cavefish: Ecology and Conservation of Four Threatened Catfish of Genus Ituglanis (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae) from Central Brazil

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
We investigated population parameters using the capture-mark-recapture method (Ituglanis passensis and I. bambui) and visual censuses (I. epikasrticus and I. ramiroi).

Estimating offspring production using capture‐mark‐recapture and genetic methods in red squirrels [PDF]

open access: yesEcological Research, 2009
Abstract Reproductive rate is a key demographic parameter of life history and population ecology. In traditional population‐ecology studies of small mammals, this and other vital rates are inferred from capture‐mark‐recapture (CMR) data.
