A review of genomics methods and bioinformatics tools for the analysis of close-kin mark-recapture

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Stock assessments serve to monitor the condition of fish stocks and exploit them sustainably but require accurate data such as growth and mortality rates as input parameters.

Effective Population Size Estimation in Large Marine Populations: Considering Current Challenges and Opportunities When Simulating Large Data Sets With High-Density Genomic Information. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Next‐generation‐sequencing has broadened perspectives regarding the estimation of the effective population size (Ne) by providing high‐density genomic information. These technologies have expanded data collection and analytical tools in population genetics, increasing understanding of populations with high abundance, such as marine species ...

A review of an emerging tool to estimate population parameters: the close-kin mark-recapture method

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Knowing the number of individuals in a population is fundamental for the sustainable management of exploited marine resources but estimating this parameter is often extremely challenging, especially in large, highly mobile and dispersed populations ...

Genomic Insights Into the Origin, Decline and Recovery of the Once Critically Endangered Iberian Lynx. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT The Iberian lynx was at the brink of extinction by the year 2000 but has since then, and thanks to intensive conservation measures, gone through a remarkable recovery, providing a much‐welcomed and encouraging conservation success story.

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

Ecosphere, 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

A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 342-369, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Pedigree‐Informed Abundance Estimation for the Endangered North Atlantic Right Whale (Eubalaena glacialis) via Gametic Mark‐Recapture

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Pedigrees can provide important data for abundance estimation by providing a means to infer the presence of individuals that might otherwise not be detected. Such information may be particularly important for endangered species, where the addition or removal of just a few individuals can make the difference between population growth and ...

Simulation‐Based Inference for Close‐Kin Mark‐Recapture: Implications for Small Populations and Nonrandom Mating

Environmetrics, Volume 36, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Close‐kin mark‐recapture (CKMR) uses data on the frequency of kin pair relationships (e.g., parent‐offspring, half‐siblings) in genetic samples from animal populations to estimate parameters such as abundance and adult survival probability.

Putting Regional Fisheries Management Organisations' Climate Change House in Order

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 1040-1047, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Climate change is expected to have significant impacts on the biology, abundance and distribution of transboundary fish stocks, not only among neighbouring countries within the jurisdictions of regional fisheries management organisations (RFMOs) but also between adjacent RFMOs.
