Does pleopod setation provide a measure of maturity in female southern rock lobsters Jasus edwardsii? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Processes affecting the estimation of the size at onset of maturity (SOM) using ovigerous setae were investigated in southern rock lobsters Jasus edwardsii. Comparison of estimates of SOM based on ovigerous setae in samples collected during summer months

Population dynamics of a long‐lived pitviper inferred from capture–recapture data spanning four decades

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Long‐term studies of plant and animal populations are rare, particularly for long‐lived species with slow life histories. However, such studies are necessary to understand how population dynamics are affected by variation in vital rates. We used a large capture–recapture dataset spanning four decades (1983–2019) to estimate several population ...

The Effect of Age on Survival Is Similar in Males and Females of an Aquatic Insect Species

open access: yesEcologies
Age is a critical intrinsic factor that influences the probability of survival of organisms on Earth. In many animals, the lifestyles and habitat occupancy of males and females are so different that the effect of age could be sex-dependent.

A new strategy for diagnostic model assessment in capture-recapture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Common to both diagnostic tests used in capture–recapture and score tests is the idea that starting from a simple base model it is possible to interrogate data to determine whether more complex parameter structures will be supported.

Three decades of western sandpiper stopover dynamics during northward migration on the Pacific Coast of North America, 1992–2022

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.
Shorebirds typically spend more time fueling and refueling during migration than they spend in actual flight, and consequently their stopover ecology has important implications for fitness and conservation. We examined spatial variation and long‐term changes in stopover duration of radio‐tagged western sandpipers Calidris mauri over three decades on ...

Estimating the prevalence of drug use using mark-recapture methods [PDF]

open access: yes
Sparked by the need to inform the response to the spread of HIV/AIDS in drug injecting populations in the 1980s and the desire to base local, national and international responses to tackling drug use in the 1990s on solid epidemiological data, the mark ...

A recipe for postfledging survival in great tits Parus major: be large and be early (but not too much) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Survival of juveniles during the postfledging period can be markedly low, which may have major consequences on avian population dynamics. Knowing which factors operating during the nesting phase affect postfledging survival is crucial to understand avian

Trap‐dependence in capture–recapture studies: empirical evidence in vertebrates and biological meaning

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Capture–recapture (CR) models have been used for decades to estimate population size and demographic rates in natural populations from the monitoring of individuals. One of the most frequent deviations from assumptions required in CR studies is the immediate trap‐dependence that corresponds to the correlation between capture events. We review empirical
