A Spatially Explicit Capture–Recapture Model for Partially Identified Individuals When Trap Detection Rate Is Less than One

When economic growth is less than exponential

This paper argues that growth theory needs a more general notion of “regularity” than that of exponential growth. We suggest that paths along which the rate of decline of the growth rate is proportional to the growth rate itself deserve attention. This opens up for considering a richer set of parameter combinations than in standard growth models. Moreover, it avoids the usual oversimplistic dic...

When Two Is Better Than One

Looking for the perfect sequencing instrument for your next experiment? As Jeffrey Perkel finds out, you might just need more than one.

The risk of flawed inference in evolutionary studies when detectability is less than one.

Addressing evolutionary questions in the wild remains a challenge. It is best done by monitoring organisms from birth to death, which is very difficult in part because individuals may or may not be resighted or recaptured. Although the issue of uncertain detection has long been acknowledged in ecology and conservation biology, in evolutionary studies of wild populations it is often assumed that...
