Emerging remote sensing technologies and population genetic analyses for chimpanzee conservation in Tanzania

2021-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Chimpanzees are declining at a rate of up to 6.5% per year in some parts of Africa due to human impacts. Effective conservation relies on accurate and reliable information on population density, distribution and connectivity. Yet, traditional line transect surveys are costly to conduct over large areas and particularly at sufficiently regular intervals to determine trends in abundance. Moreover, they often fail to...
