Estimation of demographic parameters from live‐encounter data: a summary review

BK Sandercock - The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Estimation of demographic parameters is central to research questions in wildlife
management, conservation, and evolutionary ecology. I review the 7 major classes of mark …

Estimating true instead of apparent survival using spatial C ormack–J olly–S eber models

M Schaub, JA Royle - Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Survival is often estimated from capture–recapture data using Cormack–Jolly–Seber (CJS)

Separating mortality and emigration: modelling space use, dispersal and survival with robust‐design spatial capture–recapture data

T Ergon, B Gardner - Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Capture–recapture (CR) techniques are commonly used to gain information about
population dynamics, demography and life‐history traits of populations. However, traditional …

Increasing the accuracy of productivity and survival estimates in assessing landbird population status

AD Anders, MR Marshall - Conservation biology, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
The conservation of species with declining populations requires information on population
demography and identification of factors that limit population growth. For landbird species …

A new approach to the “apparent survival” problem: estimating true survival rates from mark–recapture studies

JJ Gilroy, T Virzi, RL Boulton, JL Lockwood - Ecology, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Survival estimates generated from live capture–mark–recapture studies may be negatively
biased due to the permanent emigration of marked individuals from the study area. In the …

High winter site fidelity in a long-distance migrant: implications for wintering ecology and survival estimates

E Blackburn, W Cresswell - Journal of Ornithology, 2016 - Springer
The decision for a migratory animal to be site faithful in its non-breeding season has
profound implications for migratory connectivity, resilience to winter habitat loss and …

Group size and ectoparasitism affect daily survival probability in a colonial bird

CR Brown, MB Brown - Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2004 - Springer
Little is known in general about how group size or ectoparasitism affect survival in colonial
animals. We estimated daily within-season survival probabilities for nesting adult and …
