SPACECAP-package: A Program to Estimate Animal Abundance and Density using Bayesian Spatially-Explicit Capture-Recapture Models
Description
SPACECAP is a user-friendly software package for estimating animal
densities using closed model capture-recapture sampling based
on photographic captures using Bayesian spatially-explicit capture-
recapture models. This approach offers advantage such
as: substantially dealing with problems posed by individual
heterogeneity in capture probabilities in conventional
capture-recapture analyses. It also offers non-asymptotic
inferences which are more appropriate for small samples of
capture data typical of photo-capture studies.Details
