Long-term trends in the use of a protected area by small cetaceans in relation to changes in population status [PDF]
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2014 The requirement to monitor listed species in European designated sites is challenging for long-lived mobile species that only temporarily occupy protected areas.

Application of network theory to mark recapture data allows insights into population structure of two Heliconius species [PDF]
Network Biology, 2015 By noting the spatial location of captured individuals mark-recapture studies create a collection of discrete events spread in space and time. This setup is appropriate for network modeling where the vertices (or nodes) are the points of capture and ...

Close-kin mark-recapture informs critically endangered terrestrial mammal status. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2023 Reliable information on population size is fundamental to the management of threatened species. For wild species, mark-recapture methods are a cornerstone of abundance estimation. Here, we show the first application of the close-kin mark-recapture (CKMR)

Accurate recapture identification for genetic mark–recapture studies with error-tolerant likelihood-based match calling and sample clustering [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 Error-tolerant likelihood-based match calling presents a promising technique to accurately identify recapture events in genetic mark–recapture studies by combining probabilities of latent genotypes and probabilities of observed genotypes, which may ...

Expanding the feasibility of fish and wildlife assessments with close‐kin mark–recapture
Ecosphere, 2020 Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is a powerful new method for the assessment of fish and wildlife population dynamics. Unlike traditional mark–recapture techniques, the use of kinship as an identifying mark is robust to many forms of capture heterogeneity

Recapture heterogeneity in cliff swallows: increased exposure to mist nets leads to net avoidance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Ecologists often use mark-recapture to estimate demographic variables such as abundance, growth rate, or survival for samples of wild animal populations.

Embedding population dynamics in mark-recapture models [PDF]
, 2009 Mark-recapture methods use repeated captures of individually identifiable animals to provide estimates of properties of populations. Different models allow estimates to be obtained for population size and rates of processes governing population dynamics.

Survival rates of adult and juvenile gyrfalcons in Iceland: estimates and drivers [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Knowledge of survival rates and their potential covariation with environmental drivers, for both adults and juveniles, is paramount to forecast the population dynamics of long-lived animals.
