| Description | This cluster of papers focuses on the application of capture-recapture models to estimate population size, particularly in the context of heterogeneous detection probabilities, mixture models, Bayesian analysis, and covariate adjustment. It also addresses the challenges of estimating population size for hidden and elusive populations using multiple systems estimation and dealing with incomplete data. |
