A conversation with Richard M. Cormack [PDF]

, 2016
Richard Melville Cormack is one of the giants who developed the theory of mark-recapture. Referring to his key paper in 1964, and the papers published back-to-back in 1965 by George Jolly and George Seber, the `Cormack-Jolly-Seber model' is central to ...

Consistent apparent adult survival and nest‐site fidelity of whimbrel Numenius phaeopus near Churchill, Manitoba, Canada over a 40 year period

Journal of Avian Biology, 2023
Reliable estimates of adult survival for many shorebird species are lacking. We used Cormack–Jolly–Seber (CJS) methods to provide an estimate of apparent, or local, survival (φ) of a population of whimbrels, Numenius phaeopus, breeding in the subarctic ...

State space and movement specification in open population spatial capture-recapture models. [PDF]

, 2018
With continued global changes, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and habitat fragmentation, the need for assessment of long-term population dynamics and population monitoring of threatened species is growing.

Survival and movements of brown‐headed nuthatches after translocation to the Missouri Ozarks

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023
The brown‐headed nuthatch (Sitta pusilla) was likely extirpated from Missouri in the early 1900s as a result of habitat loss through extensive logging. Conservation partners including the Missouri Department of Conservation, United States Forest Service,

Inshore marine coastal zone migration patterns in Atlantic salmon post-smolts emigrating from eight rivers in north-east Scotland. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, migrate through multiple habitat types, each having the potential to impact differently upon migration success. The inshore marine coastal zone is arguably disproportionately impacted by potential stressors on populations.

Capture-mark-recapture modelling suggests an Endangered status for the Mayotte Island (eastern Africa) population of Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins

Endangered Species Research, 2014
We evaluated whether the Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins around the fast-developing island of Mayotte are threatened. We used opportunistic photo-identification data and capture-mark-recapture models to estimate key demographic parameters and then ...

Seasonal body mass dynamics mediate life-history trade-offs in a hibernating mammal. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
We tested a suite of ecological hypotheses to explain variation in seasonal body mass dynamics of a fat‐storing mammalian hibernator. We further demonstrated that pre‐hibernation mass gain in ground squirrels mediates an annual allocation trade‐off between current and future reproduction as the squirrels forage and rear young under predation risk ...

Nest Success and Hatchling Survival of American Alligators Within Inland Wetlands of East Texas [PDF]

, 2012
Because of liberalization of American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) harvest management in Texas, estimates of nest success and hatchling survival for inland populations are essential for long-term, sustainable population and harvest management ...

Aspects of demography in three distinct populations of garden dormouse, Eliomys quercinus, across Italy and Spain [PDF]

, 2016
Comparative aspects of the demography were investigated in three distinct populations of the ecologically poorly studied rodent Eliomys quercinus, in Spain and Italy.
