Full Open Population Capture-Recapture Models with Individual Covariates [PDF]
, 2010 Traditional analyses of capture-recapture data are based on likelihood functions that explicitly integrate out all missing data. We use a complete data likelihood (CDL) to show how a wide range of capture-recapture models can be easily fitted using ...

An 11-digit identification system for individual Nile crocodiles using natural markings
Koedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, 2016 Research and conservation of wild crocodiles and husbandry of captive crocodiles requires the reliable identification of individuals. We present a method using the individual colour markings on the first 10 single-crest scutes on the tails of Nile ...

Towards the mother-of-all-models: customised construction of the mark-recapture likelihood function [PDF]
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2004 With a proliferation of mark–recapture models and studies collecting mark–recapture data, software and analysis methods are being continually revised. We consider the construction of the likelihood for a general model that incorporates all the features ...

An evaluation of population indices for northern bobwhite
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019 Northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) populations are monitored using 2 general approaches—population indices and abundance estimators. Due to their convenient sampling designs, indices are commonly used by land managers and researchers to predict or ...

Isolation by distance in a population of a small land snail Trochoidea geyeri : evidence from direct and indirect methods [PDF]
, 2006 Population structure was estimated in a continuous population of a small land snail (Trochoidea geyeri). Mark-recapture experiments and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analyses indicate that the population structure can be described by the isolation ...
