Expanding the feasibility of fish and wildlife assessments with close-kin mark–recapture
Ecosphere, 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

Mark-release-recapture experiment in Burkina Faso demonstrates reduced fitness and dispersal of genetically-modified sterile malaria mosquitoes [PDF]
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 ...

Estimating Survival, Growth, and Morphometric Relationships of Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) in North Carolina Using Mark–Recapture and Bayesian Approaches [PDF]
AnimalsSeveral of the North Carolina blue crab’s (Callinectes sapidus) life history parameters such as growth rate, natural mortality, and length–weight relationships would benefit from being updated or localized. To this end, we designed a mark–recapture study

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 ...

Estimation fish stock and composition using mark recapture studies in floodplain lake, Jambi City
Depik Jurnal, 2023 Fish stock assessment can be estimated by dependent and independent sampling; Mark-recapture studies is a part of independent sampling method that can be used for it. This study was conducted in 2018 using purposive sampling methods.

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

Accurate recapture identification for genetic mark–recapture studies with error-tolerant likelihood-based match calling and sample clustering [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 Error-tolerant likelihood-based match calling presents a promising technique to accurately identify recapture events in genetic mark–recapture studies by combining probabilities of latent genotypes and probabilities of observed genotypes, which may ...
