Improving density estimates for elusive carnivores: Accounting for sex-specific detection and movements using spatial capture–recapture models for jaguars in central Brazil (2011, methodology): “…camera trapping can be analyzed within the analytically sound framework of capture– recapture models to estimate population abundance and density (Karanth, 1995; Karanth and Nichols, 1998; Otis et al., 1978; White et al., 1982) or population dynamics (Karanth et al., 2006; Gardner et al., 2010a).”
Spatial capture–recapture models allowing Markovian transience or dispersal (2015, unknown): “An important applied aspect of our work is that random walk models of dispersal for closed populations are easy to describe in the BUGS language and we fitted such models using JAGS to both simulated data and a real data set from a study of black bears (Gardner et al. 2010).”
Density Estimation in a Wolverine Population using Spatial Capture-Recapture Models (2011, methodology): “In the context of SCR models, it is natural to define the behavioral response to be trap-specific (Royle et al. 2009b, Gardner et al. 2010b).”
