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 ...

Challenges of implementing Mark-recapture studies on poorly marked gregarious delphinids. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2018 Population parameters of poorly marked gregarious species are difficult to estimate. This is the case for common dolphins (Delphinus sp.), a genus known for its lack of distinctive marks resulting in a low mark ratio.

Nature Communications, 2022 Release of genetically-modified sterile mosquitoes is a potential method of malaria control but has yet to be tested in the field. Here, the authors perform a mark-release-recapture experiment and show that genetically-modified mosquitoes have reduced ...

Using spatial mark-recapture for conservation monitoring of grizzly bear populations in Alberta. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 One of the challenges in conservation is determining patterns and responses in population density and distribution as it relates to habitat and changes in anthropogenic activities.

Mosquito survival from mark–recapture studies releasing at known age [PDF]
Parasites & VectorsBackground The expected lifetime (EL) of mosquitoes has been the subject of a large body of historical research, including by mark–recapture (MR) methods.

Assessing the suitability of a one‐time sampling event for close‐kin mark‐recapture: A caribou case study [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionAbundance 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]
Animals, 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 ...

A Mark-Recapture Approach to Estimating Item Pool Compromise. [PDF]
Appl Psychol MeasTesting organizations routinely investigate if secure exam material has been compromised and is consequently invalid for scoring and inclusion on future assessments. Beyond identifying individual compromised items, knowing the degree to which a form is compromised can inform decisions on whether the form can no longer be administered or when an item ...

Reliability of trans‐generational genetic mark–recapture (tGMR) for enumerating Pacific salmon [PDF]
Evolutionary ApplicationsAs Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) decline across much of their range, it is imperative to further develop minimally invasive tools to quantify population abundance.
