A comparison of four different methods to estimate population size of Alpine marmot (Marmota marmota) [PDF]
, 2017 Obtaining reliable information on animal abundance in mountainous landscapes is challenging. Highly heterogeneous habitats tend to reduce detection probabilities, and the three-dimensional, rugged nature of the terrain poses severe limits to the ...

Validation of close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) methods for estimating population abundance
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Knowing how many individuals there are in a population is a fundamental problem in the management and conservation of freshwater and marine fish. We compare abundance estimates (census size, Nc) in seven brook trout Salvelinus fontinalis populations ...

CMRnet: An r package to derive networks of social interactions and movement from mark–recapture data
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Long‐term capture–mark–recapture data provide valuable information on the movements of individuals between locations, and the contemporary and/or co‐located captures of individuals can be used to approximate the social structure of populations.

The Influence of Plant Dispersion on Movement Patterns of the Colorado Potato Beetle, \u3ci\u3eLeptinotarsa Decemlineata\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) [PDF]
, 2017 The influence of plant dispersion on movements of the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), was studied with mark-recapture techniques.

Construction and performance of a novel capture-mark-release moth trap [PDF]
, 2017 Mark-recapture studies can provide important information about moth movement as well as habitat preference across a landscape, but to date, such studies tend to be species-specific or require labor-intensive methodologies.

Estimation of badger abundance using faecal DNA typing [PDF]
, 2003 1.Wildlife management and conservation programmes often require accurate information on population density, but this can be difficult to obtain, particularly when the species in question is nocturnal or cryptic.

Analysing mark-recapture-recovery data in the presence of missing covariate data via multiple imputation [PDF]
, 2014 We consider mark–recapture–recovery data with additional individual time-varying continuous covariate data. For such data it is common to specify the model parameters, and in particular the survival probabilities, as a function of these covariates to ...

Bayesian mark–recapture–resight–recovery models: increasing user flexibility in the BUGS language
Ecosphere, 2021 Estimating demographic parameters of interest is a critical component of applied conservation biology and evolutionary ecology, where demographic models and demographic data have become increasingly complex over the last several decades.

Rejection of Schmidt et al.'s estimators for bear population size
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Aerial distance sampling of bears to estimate population size has been used throughout many parts of Alaska. The distance sampling models are complex since they need to account for undetected bears and differences in detection probabilities.

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2011 A new mark-recapture abundance estimate and a photographic census were carried out to investigate the possible decline in the abundance of the bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops truncatus (Montagu, 1821), in the Patos Lagoon estuary due to the high levels of ...
