Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2001 Summary We consider the method of distance sampling described by Buckland, Anderson, Burnham and Laake in 1993. We explore the properties of the methodology in simple cases chosen to allow direct and accessible comparisons of distance sampling in the design- and model-based frameworks.

Advanced Distance Sampling: Estimating Abundance of Biological Populations [PDF]
, 2006 This book is edited by recognized leading experts in the field. Distance sampling methodology has been rapidly evolving since 1993 when the first four editors (STB, DRA, KPB, and JLL) published the book Distance Sampling.

Adaptive k-tree sample plot for the estimation of stem density: An empirical approach
Journal of Forest Science, 2018 Available budgets for the inventory of non-commercial woodlands are small. Therefore, there has been increased interest in using distance methods, such as k-tree sampling, which are faster than fixed plot sampling.

Line transect estimates of Irrawaddy dolphin abundance along the eastern Gulf Coast of Thailand.
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 Effective conservation of coastal marine mammals is largely dependent on reliable knowledge of their abundance, as well as the ecological and human factors driving their distribution.

A comparison of four different methods to estimate population size of Alpine marmot (Marmota marmota) [PDF]
, 2017 Obtaining reliable information on animal abundance in mountainous landscapes is challenging. Highly heterogeneous habitats tend to reduce detection probabilities, and the three-dimensional, rugged nature of the terrain poses severe limits to the ...

Diversity, 2021 Parrots stand out among birds because of their poor conservation status and the lack of available information on their population sizes and trends. Estimating parrot abundance is complicated by the high mobility, gregariousness, patchy distributions, and

Evaluation of the distance sampling technique to monitor gregarious species: A simulation exercise
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023 Wildlife count data are used to provide estimates of population abundance. To quantify changes in the size of populations, it is necessary to determine the precision of abundance estimates.

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The purpose of many wildlife population studies is to estimate density, movement, or demographic parameters. Linking these parameters to covariates, such as habitat features, provides additional ecological insight and can be used to make predictions for ...
