Occupancy Estimation and Modeling: Inferring Patterns and Dynamics of Species Occurrence

This book examines the latest models for analyzing presence/absence data in occupancy measurement, and explores its importance in accurate population estimation. Using multiple models, the authors address the problem of imperfect detectability, and provide flexible means of analysis to address the issue.

*Practical sampling discussions including presentation of likelihood-based models
*Addresses critical issues of imperfect detectibility and its effects on estimation
*Provides flexible methods of estimation and analysis
