Estimating demographic parameters for capture-recapture data in the presence of multiple mark types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In mark-recapture studies, various techniques can be used to uniquely identify individual animals, such as ringing, tagging or photo-identification using natural markings.

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

Points vs. passes: A comparison between electric fishing techniques for sampling fish populations in upland headwater streams

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Point‐abundance sampling by electric fishing (PASE) was compared with single‐pass (DF1) and triple‐pass depletion sampling (DF3) electric fishing on the same reaches of four headwater streams sampled over multiple years in the Ribble catchment, UK. Juvenile salmonids, mostly brown trout Salmo trutta with some Atlantic salmon S.

On Theology and the “Overcoming” of Metaphysics: Falque, Betz, Heidegger, and Marion

open access: yesModern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract John Betz and Emmanuel Falque have recently defined “metaphysics” as something intrinsic to the Christian faith. This faith, they claim, has always spoken metaphysically, until lately challenged by the likes of Heidegger and Marion. However, when we consider Heidegger and Marion's account, we find a completely different approach to metaphysics.

Weaponizing Kinship: A Demographic Analysis of Bereavement in the Colombian Conflict

open access: yesPopulation and Development Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The ongoing Colombian armed conflict has produced widespread homicides and enforced disappearances, as armed actors used violence to terrorize communities and consolidate power. Family bereavement—one of the most pervasive and enduring consequences of this violence—remains critically understudied from a quantitative perspective.

Benefits, brokers and betrayal: Becoming a cultural broker in Papua New Guinea

open access: yesThe Australian Journal of Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract How processes entailed in accessing benefits are implemented in the early stages of a resource project shapes brokerage throughout the project's lifespan. Perceptions of the efficacy of these processes and of the individuals involved often vary.

Assessing the suitability of a one‐time sampling event for close‐kin mark‐recapture: A caribou case study

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Abundance estimation is frequently an objective of conservation and monitoring initiatives for threatened and other managed populations. While abundance estimation via capture–mark–recapture or spatially explicit capture–recapture is now common, such ...

Fine‐scale genetic structure in co‐operatively breeding Palmchats (Dulus dominicus) suggests mixed kinship in compound nests

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 4, Page 1378-1390, October 2026.
Fine‐scale genetic structure in animal populations can create opportunities for both kin‐directed co‐operation and kin competition. Knowledge of kinship is therefore key to understanding the selective pressures shaping sociality as well as the effects of social behaviour on local genetic structure.

The Analysis of Continuous Mark-Recapture Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The purpose of this thesis is to develop a general methodology for the analysis of continuously sampled data from open populations. The thesis consists of four parts and one appendix. The four parts may be read independently of each other.
