Predicting carnivore occurrence with noninvasive surveys and occupancy modeling (2011, methodology): “We explored using the multiple methods modeling approach of Nichols et al. (2008) but concluded that a standard occupancy approach would be as appropriate and would perform similarly.”
Advances and applications of occupancy models (2014, background): “…dynamics (Martin et al. 2010; MacKenzie et al. 2011; Miller et al. 2012a), estimate species occurrence at multiple spatial or temporal scales (Nichols et al. 2008; Kendall 2009; McClintock et al. 2010b; Mordecai et al. 2011; Pavlacky et al. 2012), and model occupancy dynamics as a function…”
Dealing with false‐positive and false‐negative errors about species occurrence at multiple levels (2017, methodology): “Temporary random emigration is a common feature of bird surveys, and some researchers have followed a ‘robust design’ to account for it (Nichols et al. 2008).”
Modelling of species distributions, range dynamics and communities under imperfect detection: advances, challenges and opportunities (2017, background): “Here the timing of separate surveys impacts interpretation of occupancy estimates (MacKenzie and Royle 2005, Nichols et al. 2008).”
How you count counts: the importance of methods research in applied ecology (2008, methodology): “Journal compilation © 2008 British Ecological Society, Journal of Applied Ecology , 45 , 1313–1320 Nichols et al. (2008) took the comparison of alternative methods a step further.”
Site occupancy models in the analysis of environmental DNA presence/absence surveys: a case study of an emerging amphibian pathogen (2013, methodology): “Covariates can be introduced in the usual generalized linear model manner at any of the three levels of the hierarchy, typically using a logit link function (MacKenzie et al. 2002; Nichols et al. 2008; Mordecai et al. 2011).”
Occupancy dynamics in a tropical bird community: unexpectedly high forest use by birds classified as non‐forest species (2010, methodology): “Current methodology in occupancy modelling accounts for the likelihood of false absences by incorporating detection probabilities, generating more accurate predictions with regards to the true state of occupancy and related dynamics (Royle & Link 2006; Nichols et al. 2008).”
