Spatial Capture-Recapture cover

Spatial Capture-Recapture provides a revolutionary extension of traditional capture-recapture methods for studying animal populations using data from live trapping, camera trapping, DNA sampling, acoustic sampling, and related field methods.

Provides a how-to manual with examples of spatial capture-recapture models based on technology and knowledge. This title provides you with an extensive step-by-step analysis of many data sets using different software implementations. It embraces Bayesian and classical inference strategies to give the reader different options to get the job done.Spatial Capture-Recapture provides a comprehensive how-to manual with detailed examples of spatial capture-recapture models based on current technology and knowledge. Spatial Capture-Recapture provides you with an extensive step-by-step analysis of many data sets using different software implementations. The authors' approach is practical – it embraces Bayesian and classical inference strategies to give the reader different options to get the job done. In addition, Spatial Capture-Recapture provides data sets, sample code and computing scripts in an R package.

"...a book for the DIY quantitative ecologist who wants to understand their data...I enjoyed it tremendously and it already had a strong influence on how I think about some of my current research projects." --Basic and Applied Ecology "...a timely and informative contribution that summarizes the history and motivation behind SCR models,...will be a vital addition to wildlife ecologist’s book shelves for many years to come." --The Journal of Wildlife Management, Sep 14
