Handbook of Capture-Recapture Analysis (2010, methodology): “The newer version exports more digits than the previous, and, not surprisingly, there are minor differences between the results shown here those reported earlier (Amstrup et al. 2001; McDonald and Amstrup 2001).”
State and provincial estimates of American black bear numbers versus assessments of population trend (2006, background): “Hence, serial population estimates would have limited utility for tracking population trend except over a long term (McLean and Pelton 1994, Amstrup et al. 2001, Diefenbach et al. 2004) or following a substantial change in population size (Miller 1990b, Sargeant and Ruff 2001, Garshelis and Noyce…”
Polar Bears and Seals in the Eastern Beaufort Sea and Amundsen Gulf: A Synthesis of Population Trends and Ecological Relationships over Three Decades (2002, methodology): “The later addition of data from tracking of females with satellite radios (Bethke et al., 1996; Amstrup et al., 2000) further confirmed the separation of the Northern Beaufort and Southern Beaufort populations.”
Observations of mortality associated with extended open-water swimming by polar bears in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea (2006, methodology): “The BWASP is based on a set of random field transects within established geographic blocks overlapping or near Chukchi and Beaufort Sea lease sale areas offshore of the north Alaskan coast (140–157� W and south of 72� N, Fig. 1). The study area roughly overlaps a ‘‘core area’’ of polar bear activity”
