Capture-recapture modelling of population dynamics

这项研究涉及使用统计学来研究动物种群的动态和其他生态问题。这项研究是由生态学家遇到的实际问题推动的。大部分研究都涉及捕获-再捕获实验。在这些实验中，动物被捕获、标记、释放，然后被重新捕获或重视。捕获和重新捕获/再观察的模式使研究人员能够估计存活率、种群中存在的动物数量和其他种群参数。

This research involves the use of statistics in studying the dynamics of animal populations and other ecological problems. The research is motivated by real problems encountered by ecologists. Much of the research involves capture-recapture experiments. In these experiments, animals are captured, tagged, released and then subsequently recaptured or resighted. The pattern of captures and recaptures/resightings enables the researcher to estimate survival rates, the number of animals present in the population and other population parameters.
