Description
This book is written to serve as a general reference for biologists and resource managers with relatively little statistical training.
It focuses on both basic concepts and practical applications to provide professionals with the tools needed to assess monitoring methods
that can detect trends in populations. It combines classical finite population sampling designs with population enumeration procedures
in a unified approach for obtaining abundance estimates for species of interest. The statistical information is presented in practical,
easy-to-understand terminology.
Audience:
Advanced undergraduates, graduate students, faculty and staff with interests in wildlife biology, conservation, ecology, and fishery science. Labs and federal agencies.
