DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6296
Abstract: Abstract Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is a method for estimating abundance and vital rates from kinship relationships observed in genetic samples. CKMR inference only requires animals to be sampled once (e.g., lethally), potentially widening the scope… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00338-020-01965-z
Abstract: Sharks play important functional roles in coral reef ecosystems. Studying reef shark populations’ spatial ecology also contributes important data for effective conservation planning. The purpose of this study was to define the home range of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ee/nvaa139
Abstract: Abstract Successful conservation and management of protected wildlife populations require reliable population abundance data. Traditional capture-mark-recapture methods can be costly, time-consuming, and invasive. Photographic mark-recapture (PMR) is a cost-effective, minimally invasive way to study population… read more here.

Mark my words: experts' choice of marking methods used in capture-mark-recapture studies of small mammals

DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyz188
Abstract: Crucial to the success of studies based on capture-mark-recapture (CMR) designs is the retention (permanency) and recognition (readability) of marks to identify individuals. Several marking methods for small mammals (< 60 g) are available, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2022.02.19.481126
Abstract: Close-kin mark-recapture (CKMR) methods have recently been used to infer demographic parameters such as census population size and survival for fish of interest to fisheries and conservation. These methods have advantages over traditional mark-recapture methods… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/2041-210x.13243
Abstract: Knowing how many individuals there are in a population is a fundamental problem in the management and conservation of freshwater and marine fish. We compare abundance estimates (census size, Nc) in seven brook trout Salvelinus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/biom.13194
Abstract: Multinomial data arise in many areas of the life sciences, such as mark-recapture studies and phylogenetics, and will often by overdispersed, with the variance being higher than predicted by a multinomial model. The quasi-likelihood approach… read more here.

Evaluating the suitability of close‐kin mark‐recapture as a demographic modelling tool for a critically endangered elasmobranch population
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Evolutionary Applications"
DOI: 10.1111/eva.13474
Abstract: Estimating the demographic parameters of contemporary populations is essential to the success of elasmobranch conservation programmes, and to understanding their recent evolutionary history. For benthic elasmobranchs such as skates, traditional fisheries‐independent approaches are often unsuitable… read more here.

Adapting mark-recapture methods to estimating accepted species-level diversity: a case study with terrestrial Gastropoda
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.13139
Abstract: We introduce a new method of estimating accepted species diversity by adapting mark-recapture methods to comparisons of taxonomic databases. A taxonomic database should become more complete over time, so the error bar on an estimate… read more here.
