A Simple, Inexpensive Method for Mark-Recapture of Ixodid Ticks. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Insect Sci, 2020
Abstract Mark-recapture techniques have been widely used and specialized to study organisms throughout the field of biology. To mark-recapture ticks (Ixodida), we have created a simple method to mark ticks using nail polish applied with an insect pin secured in a pencil that allows for a variety of questions to be answered. For measuring

Expanding the feasibility of fish and wildlife assessments with close‐kin mark–recapture

open access: yesEcosphere, 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

Integrating high‐speed videos in capture‐mark‐recapture studies of insects [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Capture–mark–recapture (CMR) studies have been used extensively in ecology and evolution. While it is feasible to apply CMR in some animals, it is considerably more challenging in small fast‐moving species such as insects.

Abundance estimation from genetic mark-recapture data when not all sites are sampled: An example with the bowhead whale

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Estimating abundance is one of the most fundamental and important aspects of population biology, with major implications on how the status of a population is perceived and thus on conservation and management efforts.

Mark-recapture and mark-resight methods for estimating abundance with remote cameras: a carnivore case study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Abundance estimation of carnivore populations is difficult and has prompted the use of non-invasive detection methods, such as remotely-triggered cameras, to collect data.

Mosquito survival from mark–recapture studies releasing at known age [PDF]

open access: yesParasites & Vectors
Background The expected lifetime (EL) of mosquitoes has been the subject of a large body of historical research, including by mark–recapture (MR) methods.

Simulation-Based Spatially Explicit Close-Kin Mark-Recapture. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol Resour
Abstract Estimating the size of wild populations is a critical priority for ecologists and conservation biologists, but tools to do so are often labor intensive and expensive. A promising set of newer approaches are based on genetic data, which can be cheaper to obtain and less invasive than information from more direct observation. One

Assessing the suitability of a one‐time sampling event for close‐kin mark‐recapture: A caribou case study [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Abundance estimation is frequently an objective of conservation and monitoring initiatives for threatened and other managed populations. While abundance estimation via capture–mark–recapture or spatially explicit capture–recapture is now common, such ...

Estimating Abundance of Siberian Roe Deer Using Fecal-DNA Capture-Mark-Recapture in Northeast China [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
It is necessary to estimate the population abundance of deer for managing their populations. However, most estimates are from high-density populations inhabiting the forests of North America or Europe; there is currently a lack of necessary knowledge ...
