Including a spatial predictive process in band recovery models improves inference for Lincoln estimates of animal abundance

Including a spatial predictive process in band recovery models improves inference for Lincoln estimates of animal abundance

Abstract Abundance estimation is a critical component of conservation planning, particularly for exploited species where managers set regulations to restrict harvest based on current population size. An increasingly common approach for abundance estimation is through integrated population modeling (...
