Contributor(s): MacKenzie, Darryl I. and othersMaterial type: TextTextPublication details: Amsterdam ; Boston : Elsevier, c2006Description: xviii, 324 p. : ill., mapsISBN: 9780120887668 (alk. paper); 0120887665 (alk. paper)Subject(s): Animal populations | Animal populationsDDC classification: 591.5248 Online resources: Click here to access online | Click here to access online
Contents:
Occupancy in ecological investigations -- Fundamental principles of statistical inference -- Single-species, single-season occupancy models -- Single-species, single-season models with heterogeneous detection probabilities -- Design of single-season occupancy studies -- Single-species, multiple-season occupancy models -- Occupancy data for multiple species : species interactions -- Occupancy in community-level studies -- Future directions.
Summary: This book outlines general principles for sampling animal populations, describes historical and current uses for occurrence-type metrics, and provides the latest statistical techniques. Attention is given to methods appropriate for single- and multiple-species studies, both for situations in which patterns in species occurrence are of interest at a single point in time and when studying the processes of changes in occurrence through time. In addition to analytic methods, issues related to practical study design are addressed throughout the book.--From back cover.
