VARIABILITY IN VEGETATION EFFECTS ON DENSITY AND NESTING SUCCESS OF GRASSLAND BIRDS (2005, methodology): “Nesting success was calculated using logistic exposure models (Shaffer 2004).”
Modeling avian nest survival in program mark (2007, methodology): “This motivated the development of three similar approaches to modeling nest survival in a likelihood-based framework (Dinsmore et al. 2002, Stephens 2003, Shaffer 2004a) and a burgeoning interest in Bayesian approaches (He et al. 2001, He 2003).”
Noise pollution changes avian communities and species interactions. (2009, methodology): “We further estimated nest success in terms of daily nest survival (DNS), calculated via the logisticexposure method [26], and used likelihood-ratio tests to assess model performance.”
Survival of Fledgling Hooded Warblers (Wilsonia Citrina) in Small and Large Forest Fragments (2008, methodology): “Estimates of daily nest survival prior to fledging were calculated using logistic-exposure models (GENMOD in SAS; SAS Institute, Cary, North Carolina; Shaffer 2004).”
Cavity characteristics, but not habitat, influence nest survival of cavity-nesting birds along a gradient of human impact in the subtropical Atlantic Forest (2015, methodology): “We calculated daily survival rates following Schaffer (2004), as DSR ¼ e b0þb1x1þb2x2 1þ eb0þb1x1þb2x2 where DSR is the daily survival rate, b0 is the intercept parameter, b1 and b2 are the slope parameters, and x1 and x2 are the values of the predictor variables.”
Enclosed nests may provide greater thermal than nest predation benefits compared with open nests across latitudes (2017, methodology): “STAT IST ICAL ANALYSES Daily nest predation rates were estimated for our coexisting species using the logistic exposure method (Shaffer 2004) using R v3.”
On Improving Telemetry-Based Survival Estimation (2006, background): “I detected only rare instances where parametric models were fit to wildlife survival data (e.g., Sievert and Keith 1985, Krementz et al. 1994, Murray et al. 1997, Gregg et al. 2001).”
THE EFFECTS OF PATCH SHAPE ON INDIGO BUNTINGS: EVIDENCE FOR AN ECOLOGICAL TRAP (2005, methodology): “Nest abundance data were checked for normality using a Shapiro-Wilk test and then were analyzed for treatment effects using PROC MIXED with block as a random effect and year as a repeated measure (SAS Institute 2000).”
Recent advances in understanding migration systems of New World land birds (2010, methodology): “However, more recent methods (Dinsmore et al. 2002, Shaffer 2004) do not require the assumption of constant mortality and can include habitat and timevarying covariates (i.e., nest stage, date, year) and are TABLE 2.”
IS SELECTIVELY HARVESTED FOREST AN ECOLOGICAL TRAP FOR OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHERS? (2007, methodology): “We fit logistic-exposure models using PROC GENMOD (SAS Institute 1999), a binomial response distribution, and the link function defined by Shaffer (2004).”
Exotic shrubs as ephemeral ecological traps for nesting birds (2009, methodology): “A logistic exposure model ( Shaffer 2004 ) was used to estimate seasonal variation in daily nest survival rates for the various nesting substrates.”
Adaptive phenotypic plasticity in an island songbird exposed to a novel predation risk (2008, methodology): “Daily nest survival probability (S) of nonexperimental nests was analyzed with a maximum likelihood approach in program MARK (White and Burnham 1999; Shaffer 2004) because some nests were found after females began incubation.”
Resolving the urban nest predator paradox: The role of alternative foods for nest predators (2011, methodology): “For each year I calculated habitat specific nest survival rates and 95% confidence limits using the logistic exposure method (Shaffer, 2004, SAS 9.1). Because I was interested in predation rates, I only considered nests 1546 C.M. Stracey / Biological Conservation 144 (2011) 1545–1552”
Patch Size and Landscape Effects on Density and Nesting Success of Grassland Birds (2006, methodology): “Daily probabilities of nesting success/failure (i.e., Mayfield estimates) were calculated using logistic-exposure models (Shaffer 2004).”
Ecological traps in isodars: effects of tallgrass prairie management on bird nest success (2005, background): “Recently there have been several important advances in the statistical analysis of avian nest survival (Dinsmore et al. 2002, Nur et al. 2004, Shaffer 2004 ).”
