Close-kin mark-recapture informs critically endangered terrestrial mammal status [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Reliable information on population size is fundamental to the management of threatened species. For wild species, mark-recapture methods are a cornerstone of abundance estimation. Here, we show the first application of the close-kin mark-recapture (CKMR)

Considering sampling bias in close-kin mark–recapture abundance estimates of Atlantic salmon [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Genetic methods for the estimation of population size can be powerful alternatives to conventional methods. Close-kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is based on the principles of conventional mark–recapture, but instead of being physically marked, individuals are

Close-kin mark-recapture methods to estimate demographic parameters of mosquitoes [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2022 Close-kin mark-recapture (CKMR) methods have recently been used to infer demographic parameters such as census population size and survival for fish of interest to fisheries and conservation.

Must epidemiologically impactful vector control interventions disrupt mosquito population structure? A case study of a cluster-randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Evol ApplABSTRACT Large epidemiological impacts resulting from disease vector control interventions are typically associated with significant disruption of vector populations. While vector density is a frequently measured response, impacts on demography and connectivity are suspected but rarely quantified.

Low levels of sibship encourage use of larvae in western Atlantic bluefin tuna abundance estimation by close-kin mark-recapture. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 Globally, tunas are among the most valuable fish stocks, but are also inherently difficult to monitor and assess. Samples of larvae of Western Atlantic bluefin tuna Thunnus thynnus (Linnaeus, 1758) from standardized annual surveys in the northern Gulf of

Evaluating the suitability of close-kin mark-recapture as a demographic modelling tool for a critically endangered elasmobranch population. [PDF]
Evol Appl, 2023 Estimating the demographic parameters of contemporary populations is essential to the success of elasmobranch conservation programmes, and to understanding their recent evolutionary history. For benthic elasmobranchs such as skates, traditional fisheries-

Spatial close-kin mark-recapture methods to estimate dispersal parameters and barrier strength for mosquitoes. [PDF]
PLoS Comput BiolClose-kin mark-recapture (CKMR) methods have recently been used to infer demographic parameters for several aquatic and terrestrial species. For mosquitoes, the spatial distribution of close-kin pairs has been used to estimate mean dispersal distance, of
