A Two-Species Occupancy Model with a Continuous-Time Detection Process Reveals Spatial and Temporal Interactions

Kellner, K. F., Parsons, A. W., Kays, R., Millspaugh, J. J., & Rota, C. T. (2022, January 7). JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL BIOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL STATISTICS, Vol. 1.

By: K. Kellner *, A. Parsons*, R. Kays* , J. Millspaugh * & C. Rota *

author keywords: Activity patterns; Camera traps; Occupancy; Point process; Temporal interactions
TL;DR: The proposed two-species occupancy model broadens the set of questions ecologists can ask regarding both spatial and temporal interactions between species, as well as fine-scale temporal covariates (e.g., weather). (via Semantic Scholar)

Monitoring small mammal abundance using NEON data: are calibrated indices useful?

Parsons, A. W., Clark, J. S., & Kays, R. (2022, November 25). JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, Vol. 11.

By: A. Parsons n, J. Clark * & R. Kays n 

author keywords: abundance; abundance indices; Bayesian; capture; recapture; NEON; small mammal
TL;DR: It is found that neither raw abundance indices nor index calibrations were reliable approximations of absolute abundance, with raw indices less correlated with absolute abundance than index calibratedations, and none of the indices should be used for comparing different species due to high variation in capture probabilities.

Managing Native Predators: Evidence from a Partial Removal of Raccoons (Procyon lotor) on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, USA

Waterbirds, 40(sp1), 10–18.

By: J. Stocking*, T. Simons*, A. Parsons* & A. O'Connell *

TL;DR: Either the raccoon reduction was inadequate, or factors other than predation cause more variation in nest success than previously recognized, which means a multi-faceted approach to management aimed at reducing nest losses to storm overwash, predation, and human disturbance is likely to yield the largest population level benefits.

Optimal control of native predators

BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION, 143(7), 1751–1758.

By: J. Martin *, W. Kendall, M. Runge, T. Simons n, A. Waldstein n, S. Schulte n, S. Converse, G. Smith ...

author keywords: Structured decision-making; Threatened and endangered species; Raccoons; Oystercatchers; Adaptive management
TL;DR: It is shown how adaptive optimization can be used to account for uncertainties about how raccoon control may affect Oystercatcher productivity and found that the optimal control of raccoons would result in higher Oystercats productivity than the minimum levels recommended for this species.
