Continuous time-dependent Individual covariates and the Cormack-Jolly-Seber model [PDF]
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2004 The Cormack-Jolly-Seber model provides the basic framework for analyzing the survival of animals in open populations using capture-recapture data. Extensions of this model have already been developed that allow the survival and capture probabilities to ...

A decade of humpback whale abundance estimates at Bermuda, an oceanic migratory stopover site
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 We constructed annual abundance of a migratory baleen whale at an oceanic stopover site to elucidate temporal changes in Bermuda, an area with increasing anthropogenic activity.

Full Open Population Capture-Recapture Models with Individual Covariates [PDF]
, 2010 Traditional analyses of capture-recapture data are based on likelihood functions that explicitly integrate out all missing data. We use a complete data likelihood (CDL) to show how a wide range of capture-recapture models can be easily fitted using ...

When is a parasite not a parasite? Effects of larval tick burdens on white-footed mouse survival [PDF]
, 2014 Many animal species can carry considerable burdens of ectoparasites: parasites living on the outside of a host's body. Ectoparasite infestation can decrease host survival, but the magnitude and even direction of survival effects can vary depending on the

Scientia Marina, 2007 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.

The Effect of Novel Research Activities on Long-term Survival of Temporarily Captive Steller Sea Lions (Eumetopias jubatus). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Two novel research approaches were developed to facilitate controlled access to, and long-term monitoring of, juvenile Steller sea lions for periods longer than typically afforded by traditional fieldwork.

Evaluating trends in abundance of immature green turtles, Chelonia mydas, in the Greater Caribbean [PDF]
, 2005 Many long-lived marine species exhibit life history traits. that make them more vulnerable to overexploitation. Accurate population trend analysis is essential for development and assessment of management plans for these species. However, because many of

Fin whale survival and abundance in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, Canada
Endangered Species Research, 2014 The fin whale Balaenoptera physalus, the second largest species in the animal kingdom to have lived on Earth, was heavily targeted during the industrial whaling era.

Seasonal survival probabilities suggest low migration mortality in migrating bats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Migration is adaptive if survival benefits are larger than costs of residency. Many aspects of bat migration ecology such as migratory costs, stopover site use and fidelity are largely unknown.
