Combining N-mixture and occupancy analysis offers a more complete picture of carnivore habitat use in Northeastern Türkiye. [PDF]
PLoS ONEOccupancy and N-mixture analyses have been successfully used to understand habitat use in various species. However, since these methods fundamentally answer different questions about wildlife distribution, the results from each modelling approach may ...

The Bees among Us: Modelling Occupancy of Solitary Bees. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Occupancy modelling has received increasing attention as a tool for differentiating between true absence and non-detection in biodiversity data. This is thought to be particularly useful when a species of interest is spread out over a large area and ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Medium to large rainforest mammals are key conservation flagship groups that offer non‐redundant ecosystem functions, but anthropic pressures, such as illegal hunting, may strongly affect their occupancy in Amazonia.

Model Selection in Occupancy Models: Inference versus Prediction [PDF]
Ecology, 2022 AbstractOccupancy models are a vital tool for applied ecologists studying the patterns and drivers of species occurrence, but their use requires a method for selecting between models with different sets of occupancy and detection covariates. The information-theoretic approach, which employs information criteria such as Akaike’s Information Criterion ...

Correspondence model of occupational accidents [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2011 We present a new generalized model for the diagnosis and prediction of accidents among the Spanish workforce. Based on observational data of the accident rate in all Spanish companies over eleven years (7,519,732 accidents), we classified them in a new risk-injury contingency table (19×19).

Using subnivean camera traps to study Arctic small mammal community dynamics during winter
Arctic Science, 2022 Small rodents are a key indicator to understand the effect of rapidly changing winter climate on Arctic tundra ecosystems. However, monitoring rodent populations through the long Arctic winter by means of conventional traps has, until now, been hampered ...

Examining human–carnivore interactions using a socio-ecological framework: sympatric wild canids in India as a case study [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Many carnivores inhabit human-dominated landscapes outside protected reserves. Spatially explicit assessments of carnivore distributions and livestock depredation patterns in human-use landscapes are crucial for minimizing negative interactions and ...
