Occupancy Estimation and Modeling is the first book to examine the latest methods in analyzing presence/absence data surveys. Using four classes of models (single-species, single-season; single-species, multiple season; multiple-species, single-season; and multiple-species, multiple-season), the authors discuss the practical sampling situation, present a likelihood-based model enabling direct estimation of the occupancy-related parameters while allowing for imperfect detectability, and make recommendations for designing studies using these models. Provides authoritative insights into the latest in estimation modeling Discusses multiple models which lay the groundwork for future study designs Addresses critical issues of imperfect detectibility and its effects on estimation Explores the role of probability in estimating in detail

Guiding the practitioner through the entire process of using camera traps, this book is the first to compile state-of-the-art sampling techniques for the purpose of conducting high-quality science or effective management.
In our first example, we model the effect of body mass on detection probability in the Czech bird data. Body mass could affect detection probability p in various ways. First, everything else equal, larger birds are rarer than smaller ...
