State-space mark-recapture estimates reveal a recent decline in abundance of North Atlantic right whales. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2017 North Atlantic right whales (Eubalaena glacialis Müller 1776) present an interesting problem for abundance and trend estimation in marine wildlife conservation.

Absolute abundance of southern bluefin tuna estimated by close-kin mark-recapture. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2016 Southern bluefin tuna is a highly valuable, severely depleted species, whose abundance and productivity have been difficult to assess with conventional fishery data.

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 ...

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.

Incorporating individual variability into mark–recapture models [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2012 Summary Understanding individual variation is a key challenge in ecology. Inherent individual differences in movement and behaviour pose fundamental problems in the analysis of mark–recapture data as unmodelled individual differences can bias estimates of population size and survival rates.

Chew-cards can accurately index invasive rat densities in Mariana Island forests [PDF]
NeoBiota, 2022 Rats (Rattus spp.) are likely established on 80–90% of the world’s islands and represent one of the most damaging and expensive biological invaders. Effective rat control tools exist but require accurate population density estimates or indices to inform ...
