Stock assessment in inland fisheries: a foundation for sustainable use and conservation (2016, background): “Depletion methods are well suited for use in smaller freshwater systems where it is feasible to remove a substantial proportion of the population and can provide precise estimates of absolute abundance as long as key assumptions are met (e.g., Seber 1982; Rosenberger and Dunham 2005).”
Estimation and Modeling of Electrofishing Capture Efficiency for Fishes in Wadeable Warmwater Streams (2010, unknown): “Capture–recapture estimates also are widely used for obtaining unbiased or minimally biased estimates of fish abundance ( Otis et al. 1978 ; Peterson and Cederholm 1984 ; Anderson 1995 ; Rosenberger and Dunham 2005 ).”
Evaluation of an Unsuccessful Brook Trout Electrofishing Removal Project in a Small Rocky Mountain Stream (2006, background): “Previous studies (Riley and Fausch 1992; Peterson et al. 2004b; Rosenberger and Dunham 2005) have demonstrated that electrofishing removals can produce biased estimates of abundance because CP is lower than what is actually measured, producing abundance estimates that are too low, and in our case,…”
