… Abstract: Over a 3-year period, we assessed 2 sampling designs for estimating grizzly bear
(Ursus arctos) population size using DNA capture–mark–recapture methods on a population …

… for direct density estimation that we call a apping web. Use of a trapping web design allows
ipture data to be considered as distance sampling ita, which is a type of plotless sampling. …

… initial simulation (to obtain the samples used to construct the kernel sampling density) and
that from the simulation runs using the kernel sampling density. This estimator is found to be …

… densities of species with varied space use. Through simulations we found the hybrid design
facilitated density estimates … We implemented a hybrid camera design across a 1154-km 2 …

… little effect on the performance of density estimates (ie, RRMSE) except when excessively
wide spacing resulted in low numbers of detectors within the sampling area. Thus, RRMSE …

… as a function of sampling density and sampling design: (1) … with sampling density for each
sampling design and attribute … returns” was evident for sampling densities greater than ∼24 …

… The proposed sample density estimation method is introduced in terms of its application
in gridding reconstruction, followed by descriptions of the constituent methods previously …

… We present an aid for importance sampling in Monte Carlo … of its design, it can also be
used for density estimation, ie, for … one, so that PARNI can serve as a pure density estimator. …

… ) sample size and capture probability, 3) camera location and spacing, 4) the size of the study
area, and 5) ad hoc density estimation … intermediate step of estimating an effective trapping …

… In order to develop kernel density estimates in finite population sampling, it is … sampling
design on the bias. In general terms each density estimate can be written as a weighted sample …
