Subterranean systems provide a suitable overwintering habitat for Salamandra salamandra
The fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra) has been repeatedly noted to occur in natural and artificial subterranean systems. Despite the obvious connection of this species with underground shelters, their level of dependence and importance to the ...

Full Open Population Capture-Recapture Models with Individual Covariates [PDF]
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 ...

Designing screening protocols for amphibian disease that account for imperfect and variable capture rates of individuals [PDF]
The amphibian chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, is one of the main factors in global amphibian decline. Accurate knowledge of its presence and prevalence in an area is needed to trigger conservation actions. However, imperfect capture rates

Continuous time-dependent Individual covariates and the Cormack-Jolly-Seber model [PDF]
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 ...

Demography and Population Dynamics of the Lacertid Lizard Podarcis Bocagei in North-West Spain [PDF]
[Abstract] The demography and life-history traits of a population of the lacertid lizard Podarcis bocagei in north-west Spain were investigated. Most of the conclusions presented are based on mark-recapture studies carried out over a 2-year period ...

The Influence of Mark-Recapture Sampling Effort on Estimates of Rock Lobster Survival. [PDF]
Five annual capture-mark-recapture surveys on Jasus edwardsii were used to evaluate the effect of sample size and fishing effort on the precision of estimated survival probability. Datasets of different numbers of individual lobsters (ranging from 200 to
