Temporally adaptive sampling: a case study in rare species survey design with marbled salamanders (Ambystoma opacum). by Noah D Charney, Jacob E Kubel, Charles S Eiseman

“…This requires either long-term monitoring at a few locations where the species are known to occur or models capable of predicting population trends using climatic and demographic data. For marbled salamanders (Ambystoma opacum) in Massachusetts, we demonstrate that annual variation in detection probability of larvae is regionally correlated. …”
