Monitoring carnivore populations at the landscape scale: occupancy modelling of tigers from sign surveys

2011-08-01

Abstract excerpt

1. Assessing spatial distributions of threatened large carnivores at landscape scales poses formidable challenges because of their rarity and elusiveness. As a consequence of logistical constraints, investigators typically rely on sign surveys. Most survey methods, however, do not explicitly address the central problem of imperfect detections of animal signs in the field, leading to underestimates of true habitat...
