Description
Wildlife Demography compiles the multitude of available estimation techniques based on sex and age data, and presents
these varying techniques in one organized, unified volume. Designed to guide researchers to the most appropriate estimator based upon
their particular data set and the desired level of study precision, this book provides quantitative consideration, statistical models,
estimator variance, assumptions and examples of use.
The authors focus on estimation techniques using sex and age ratios because this
data is relatively easy to collect and commonly used by wildlife management
Audience:
Wildlife biologists, Environmental statisticians, Quantitative ecology students
