2002 journal article

A removal model for estimating detection probabilities from point-count surveys

AUK, 119(2), 414–425.

By: G. Farnsworth n, K. Pollock n, J. Nichols *, T. Simons n, J. Hines * & . Sauer *

topics (OpenAlex): Rangeland and Wildlife Management; Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Avian ecology and behavior
TL;DR: A maximum-likelihood estimator for the detectability of birds recorded during counts divided into intervals of any length is developed and applied to unlimited-radius counts conducted in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. (via Semantic Scholar)

2002 article

Large scale wildlife monitoring studies: statistical methods for design and analysis

Pollock, K. H., Nichols, J. D., Simons, T. R., Farnsworth, G. L., Bailey, L. L., & Sauer, JR. (2002, March). ENVIRONMETRICS, Vol. 13, pp. 105–119.

By: K. Pollock n, J. Nichols *, T. Simons n, G. Farnsworth n, L. Bailey n & . Sauer *

author keywords: absolute abundance; capture-recapture sampling; detection probability; distance sampling; long-term monitoring; relative abundance; removal sampling; wildlife monitoring studies
topics (OpenAlex): Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Survey Sampling and Estimation Techniques; Rangeland and Wildlife Management
TL;DR: Basic concepts based on actual avian, amphibian, and fish monitoring studies are presented in this article and it is believed that the estimation of detection probability should be built into the monitoring design through a double sampling approach. (via Semantic Scholar)
