Published in 2025 at "Oikos"

DOI: 10.1002/oik.11544

Abstract: Generalized distance sampling (GDS) models are the distance sampling equivalent of temporary emigration N‐mixture models. In addition to density and the perceptibility component of detection, both contain an additional parameter for availability for detection which… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Wildlife Biology"

DOI: 10.1002/wlb3.01471

Abstract: Reliable population estimates are essential for the management of harvested species. Line transect distance sampling using pointing dogs is an established survey method for willow ptarmigan and has also been proposed for the monitoring of… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Biological Invasions"

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-024-03323-4

Abstract: Monitoring population parameters of invasive species gains importance as these species continue to expand all over the world. Monitoring of invasive mammalian mesopredators is, however, complicated due to their nocturnal and secretive behaviour. In the… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Ecological Modelling"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2017.02.007

Abstract: Population size estimates are an integral part of any species conservation or management project. They are often used to evaluate the impact of management intervention and can be critical for making decisions for future management.… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-96787-w

Abstract: Bird population estimation over broad spatial and temporal scales is a key objective in ornithology. To date, bird ecologists mainly relied on standard point counts where the number of detected individuals is interpreted as either… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Pacific Conservation Biology"

DOI: 10.1071/pc25008

Abstract: Context Population monitoring is an essential need for tracking biodiversity and judging efficacy of conservation management actions, both globally and in the Pacific. However, population monitoring efforts are often temporally inconsistent and limited to small… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Journal of Applied Ecology"

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2664.70006

Abstract: A critical assumption of standard distance sampling is that sampling lines are located such that animals are uniformly distributed as a function of distance from the line. Failure to meet this assumption can introduce bias… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Methods in Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1111/2041-210x.12932

Abstract: 1.Effective wildlife management and conservation depends on a detailed understanding of population dynamics at large spatial scales. Distance sampling is an efficient tool for landscape-scale monitoring, and the recent development of the open-population distance sampling… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "PLoS ONE"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0263314

Abstract: Estimating population density and population dynamics is essential for understanding primate ecology and relies on robust methods. While distance sampling theory provides a robust framework for estimating animal abundance, implementing a constrained, non-systematic transect design… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "PLOS ONE"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0310020

Abstract: Estimates of population density are fundamental to wildlife conservation and management. Distance sampling from line transects is a widely used sample count method and is most often analysed using Distance software. However, this method has… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Wildlife Biology"

DOI: 10.2981/wlb.00652

Abstract: The increasing use of remote motion-sensitive photography recently led to an extension of distance sampling (DS) to accommodate camera trap data. Camera trap distance sampling (CTDS) has been proposed as a promising tool to estimate… read more here.
