Mechanistic‐Statistical Inference of Mosquito Dynamics From Mark‐Release‐Recapture Data
Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 3, July 2026.Mark‐release‐recapture data contain valuable information on mosquito dispersal and survival, but this information is only indirectly observed through trap counts. We combine a mechanistic diffusion model with a statistical observation model to infer movement, mortality, and trap efficiency jointly.
