Biodiversity survey and estimation for line-transect sampling [PDF]
Conducting biodiversity surveys using a fully randomised design can be difficult due to budgetary constraints (e.g., the cost of labour), site accessibility, and other constraints.

Abundance estimation for line transect sampling: A comparison of distance sampling and spatial capture-recapture models. [PDF]
Accurate and precise abundance estimation is vital for informed wildlife conservation and management decision-making. Line transect surveys are a common sampling approach for abundance estimation.

The effect of animal movement on line transect estimates of abundance. [PDF]
Line transect sampling is a distance sampling method for estimating the abundance of wild animal populations. One key assumption of this method is that all animals are detected at their initial location.

An open spatial capture–recapture model for estimating density, movement, and population dynamics from line‐transect surveys [PDF]
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 ...

Accounting for subgroup structure in line-transect abundance estimates of false killer whales (Pseudorca crassidens) in Hawaiian waters. [PDF]
For biological populations that form aggregations (or clusters) of individuals, cluster size is an important parameter in line-transect abundance estimation and should be accurately measured.

Line transect sampling in mountainous terrains [PDF]
Line transect sampling is an attractive method to estimate abundance in certain mountainous terrains, since it allows to cover a large region in a short period of time and there is no need to mark or capture animals. Abundance estimates are obtained with

Changes in Woody Vegetation over 31 Years in Farmed Parkland of the Central Plateau, Burkina Faso
Farmed parklands of the Central Plateau, Burkina Faso, integrate native woody vegetation with managed cropland. However, sapling survival in the parklands is increasingly threatened. This study characterized woody vegetation abundance along a 2.7 km long

Floodplain Forests and Urban Parks – A Brief Comparison of Bird Diversity
Urbanization in cultural landscapes generally tends to select for omnivorous, granivorous, and cavity/hole nesting bird species in green urban areas. Studies on bird diversity in the cities are important to better understanding to the ecology of urban ...
