The "Tracked Roaming Transect" and distance sampling methods increase the efficiency of underwater visual censuses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Underwater visual census (UVC) is the most common approach for estimating diversity, abundance and size of reef fishes in shallow and clear waters. Abundance estimation through UVC is particularly problematic in species occurring at low densities and/or ...

Measurement Errors and Imperfect Detection Rates on the Transect Line in Independent Observer Line Transect Surveys [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Data Science, 2021
This paper proposes a parametric method for estimating animal abundance using data from independent observer line transect surveys. This method allows measurement errors in distance and size, and less than 100% detection rates on the transect line. Based on data from southern bluefin tuna surveys and data from a mike whale survey, simulation studies ...

Distance Sampling in R

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2019
Estimating the abundance and spatial distribution of animal and plant populations is essential for conservation and management. We introduce the R package Distance that implements distance sampling methods to estimate abundance. We describe how users can

Use of aerial distance sampling to estimate abundance of tule elk across a gradient of canopy cover and comparison to a concurrent fecal DNA spatial capture-recapture survey

open access: yesCalifornia Fish and Wildlife Journal, 2022
Historically, aerial surveys have been used widely to monitor abundance of large mammals in the western United States. In California, such surveys have typically served as minimum count indices rather than true abundance estimates. Here, we evaluated the
