Cormack-Jolly-Seber models: time and age perspectives [PDF]
Survival is a key demographic characteristic in many areas including both humandemography and population ecology. However, it is often the case that data collection protocols are different in these areas, resulting in different models and methods of ...

We used pattern recognition software to correct misidentifications in a 15‐year photographic database of the last, vulnerable West African giraffe population in Niger. After revealing substantial methodological errors that had inflated population estimates by nearly 19%, we corrected individual encounter histories and applied capture‐mark‐recapture ...

Abstract Effective fishery management policy depends on accurate life‐history data, particularly for harvested species. Longevity is a core life‐history trait that is directly related to annual survival and lifetime reproductive potential, but fish longevity is generally not well documented, particularly for long‐lived species.

Modelos jerárquicos de marcaje–recaptura: un marco para la inferencia de procesos demográficos [PDF]
The development of sophisticated mark–recapture models over the last four decades has provided fundamental tools for the study of wildlife populations, allowing reliable inference about population sizes and demographic rates based on clearly formulated ...

Survival probabilities of loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) are estimated for the first time in the Mediterranean by analysing 3254 tagging and 134 re-encounter data from this region. Most of these turtles were juveniles found at sea.

Population dynamics of Townsend's big‐eared bats: effect of age and drought on survival
We estimated age‐specific yearly survival of female Townsend's big‐eared bats in Inyo and Mono Counties, California. We found that both juvenile and adult survival were negatively impacted by drought, and that detection probability was lower for hand‐recapture than for bats detected via pass‐through antenna arrays.

Age‐specific survival of reintroduced swift fox in Badlands National Park and surrounding lands
In 2003, a reintroduction program was initiated at Badlands National Park (BNP), South Dakota, USA, with swift foxes (Vulpes velox) translocated from Colorado and Wyoming, USA, as part of a restoration effort to recover declining swift fox populations ...

Apparent annual survival of staging ruffs during a period of population decline: insights from sex and site-use related differences [PDF]
The ruff Philomachus pugnax, a lekkingshorebird wintering in Africa and breeding across northernEurasia, declined severely in its western range. Based on acapture-mark-resighting programme (2004–2011) in thewesternmost staging area in Friesland (the ...

Updated estimate of fecundity for Hector's dolphin is lower and more precise than prior estimation. This latest estimate suggests a lower capacity for population growth than previously thought and a reduced resilience to anthropogenic threats. Abstract Prediction of future population trajectories is vital in the management of threatened species but ...
