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

Journal of Ornithology, 2010
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

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.

Temporal sampling frame selection in DNA-based capture–mark–recapture investigations

Ursus, 2012
Abstract Capture–mark–recapture (CMR) population parameter estimation utilizing DNA analysis from remotely-collected hair samples to identify individuals and generate encounter histories has become the standard methodology for estimating abundance of American black (Ursus americanus) and grizzly bear (U. arctos) populations.

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.

Capture-mark-recapture as a tool for estimating the number of articles available for systematic reviews in critical care medicine

Journal of Critical Care, 2013
Systematic reviews are an important knowledge synthesis tool for critical care medicine clinicians and researchers. With new literature available each day, reviewers must balance identifying all relevant literature against timely synthesis. We therefore sought to apply capture-mark-recapture, a novel methodology, to estimate the population of articles ...

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.

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.

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.
