Occupancy Estimation and Modeling
Fine, although to truly understand and use it, the reader should know PRESENCE software

Occupancy Estimation and Modeling
This is the most recent edition of a classic that set the standard for occupancy modeling research. This is updated, clearly laid out, easy to understand, and authoritative. An outstanding resource.

solid reference for occupancy modeling studies
I bought this book before starting an occupancy modeling study on bats in order to help determine best practices. It has served this purpose well, and I could read up on the topics I needed without being put to sleep. I particularly enjoyed the study case concerning trolls in Middle Earth.

Occupancy Estimation and Modeling 2nd edition
I think this is a fundamental book for people who interested in studying spatial ecology of wildlife and plant (dermatology filed also), especially for students. The book include all vital information, evolution of the the concepts plus examples. There many recent researches included in this new edition, update from the first one in 2002 as due to it popularity increasing over time since the first one released. I appreciate that I can own one, that will be one of my good reference that will definitely used when I write and analyze data for my thesis in next couple years.
