Photo-identification and its application to gregarious delphinids: Common dolphins (Delphinus sp.) in the Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand : A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Marine Ecology at Massey University, Albany, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2016 Common dolphins (Delphinus sp.) remain one of the most poorly understood delphinids within New Zealand waters. Baseline data on their abundance, site fidelity, movement patterns, and social structure remain unknown.

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Site network approaches to waterbird conservation are easily biased towards species that occur in high densities and locations and periods of the annual cycle with dense concentrations of birds, thereby potentially failing to address underlying factors driving certain population declines.

Fuzzy logic modelling of snow leopard populations in response to threats from climate change [PDF]
, 2015 The snow leopard population in Kazakhstan represents a small but important component of the species range, making up around 2.7% of the global range, of which 18,673 km2 lies within protected areas. The most recent population estimate, by Jackson et al. (

Hacia el origen de todos los modelos: una construcción personalizada de la función de verosimilitud en los estudios de marcaje–recaptura [PDF]
With a proliferation of mark–recapture models and studies collecting mark–recapture data, software and analysis methods are being continually revised. We consider the construction of the likelihood for a general model that incorporates all the features ...

Age-specific survival of male Golden-cheeked Warblers on the Fort Hood Military Reservation, Texas
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2014 Population models are essential components of large-scale conservation and management plans for the federally endangered Golden-cheeked Warbler (Setophaga chrysoparia; hereafter GCWA). However, existing models are based on vital rate estimates calculated

Ratio plot and ratio regression with applications to social and medical sciences
, 2016 We consider count data modeling, in particular, the zero-truncated case as it arises naturally in capture–recapture modeling as the marginal distribution of the count of identifications of the members of a target population.

Animal Biodiversity and ConservationThe study of population dynamics has long depended on methodological progress. Among many striking examples, continuous time models for populations structured in age (Sharpe & Lotka, 1911) were made possible by progress in the mathematics of integral ...
