• If you ignore p then C =2 is biased
• Usually we have to collect other data to estimate p!

c.c.
Design• Animals caught
• Unmarked animals in sample given (or have) unique
marks
• Marks on any marked animals recorded
• Release marked animals into population
• Resample at subsequent occasions
• Minimum two sampling periods (capture and recapture)
• (Ideally) a relatively short interval between periods
Not during migration, harvest period, other period with
significant gains, losses, movement
• Must be long enough to generate recaptures
![Page 8: BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO CLOSED CAPTURE-RECAPTURE METHODS.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649e5c5503460f94b542ce/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Closed Population Estimators
Key Assumptions
• Population is closed
(no birth/death/immigration/emigration)
• Animal captures are independent
• All animals are available for capture
• Marks are not lost or overlooked
• L-P and Schnabel • assume equal p (never ever possible)• Probability of recapture not affected by
previous capture
![Page 9: BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO CLOSED CAPTURE-RECAPTURE METHODS.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649e5c5503460f94b542ce/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Violations of AssumptionsViolations of Assumptions
Closure violation• Mortality or emigration during sampling
Unbiased estimate of N at first sample time
• Immigration or birth Unbiased estimate of N at last sample time
• Both Valid inferences not possible

Violations of AssumptionsViolations of Assumptions
All animals are not available for capture - underestimate N - overestimate p
![Page 11: BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO CLOSED CAPTURE-RECAPTURE METHODS.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649e5c5503460f94b542ce/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Equal capture probability (when assumed)• Differences (heterogeneity) among individuals
Underestimate abundance
• Trap response: “trap-shy” Overestimate NUnderestimate p
•“Trap happy” Underestimate N Overestimate p

Rule of thumb
Number of animals captured each occasion (C) determines precision of estimates of N
If capture probabilities low or true abundance low: More effort in fewer occasions Increases occasion specific p Increases C

Closed population estimators
Definitionspt = probability of first capture sampling occasion tct = probability of recapture sampling occasion t+1 (don’t confuse with big C)N = population size
Note: there are t-1 estimates possible for c

Closed population estimators
DefinitionsIf there is no effect of first capture on recapture probability
- no trap happy- no trap shy, etc.
pt+1 = ct

Huggins version of CR estimator
![Page 23: BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO CLOSED CAPTURE-RECAPTURE METHODS.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649e5c5503460f94b542ce/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Why Covariates?
Capture probability known to be related to:species, body size, habitat characteristics
More efficient means of accounting for heterogeneity
e.g., assume p varies through time (5 time periods) due to differences in stream dischargeNumber of parameters time varying model = 5Number parameters p in f(discharge) = 2
Effects model selection: AIC = -2LogL + 2*KDanger of over parameterization (more parameters than data)

Frequently encountered problem
I don’t have enough marked and/or recaptured individuals Make sure closure assumption not violated Include data from other years/locations to
estimate p for poor recapture year (Huggins) Bayesian hierarchical approaches
