We used 19 years of mark-recapture/resighting data collected on 11,020 birds from 1988-2006 at five colony sites in Massachusetts, New York, and Connecticut, USA, to examine temporal variation in the...
Capture-recapture data from two disparate breeding populations of Roseate Terns (Sterna dougallii) captured together as non-breeding individuals from 2002 to 2007 in the southern Great Barrier Reef,...
Population Dynamics of the Concho Water Snake in Rivers and Reservoirs (2008)
Martin J. Whiting, James R. Dixon, Brian D. Greene, James M. Mueller, Jeff S. Hatfield, ...
The Concho Water Snake (Nerodia harteri paucimaculata) is confined to the Concho–Colorado River valley of central Texas, thereby occupying one of the smallest geographic ranges of any North...

Numbers of Black Brant (Branta bernicla nigricans) have declined dramatically in at least one important breeding area in the Western Canadian Arctic (WCA) and the regional population is small and...
A REMOVAL MODEL FOR ESTIMATING DETECTION PROBABILITIES FROM POINT-COUNT SURVEYS (2002)
George L. Farnsworth, Kenneth H. Pollock, James D. Nichols, Theodore R. Simons, James E. Hines, John R. Sauer
Myra O. Wiebe, James E. Hines, Gregory J. Robertson
Not accounting for collar loss when using observations of collared geese to estimate survival can result in an underestimation of the survival rates and a loss of precision. As part of a study of...

Higher temporal variability of forest breeding bird communities in fragmented landscapes
Boulinier, Thierry, Nichols, James D., Hines, James E., Sauer, John R., Flather, Curtis H., Pollock, Kenneth H.
Understanding the relationship between animal community dynamics and landscape structure has become a priority for biodiversity conservation. In particular, predicting the effects of habitat...
Sexual selection affects local extinction and turnover in bird communities
Doherty, Paul F., Sorci, Gabriele, Royle, J. Andrew, Hines, James E., Nichols, James D., Boulinier, Thierry
Predicting extinction risks has become a central goal for conservation and evolutionary biologists interested in population and community dynamics. Several factors have been put forward to explain...
Tigers and their prey: Predicting carnivore densities from prey abundance
Karanth, K. Ullas, Nichols, James D., Kumar, N. Samba, Link, William A., Hines, James E.
The goal of ecology is to understand interactions that determine the distribution and abundance of organisms. In principle, ecologists should be able to identify a small number of limiting resources...

Spatio-temporal dynamics of species richness in coastal fish communities.
Lekve, Kyrre, Boulinier, Thierry, Stenseth, Nils Chr, Gjøsaeter, Jakob, Fromentin, Jean-Marc, Hines, James E, ...
Determining patterns of change in species richness and the processes underlying the dynamics of biodiversity are of key interest within the field of ecology, but few studies have investigated the...
Influence of behavioural tactics on recruitment and reproductive trajectory in the kittiwake
Emmanuelle Cam, Bernard Cadiou, James E. Hines, Jean Yves Monnat
Many studies have provided evidence that, in birds, inexperienced breeders have a lower probability of breeding successfully. This is often explained by lack of skills and knowledge, and sometimes...
The use of resighting data to estimate the rate of population growth of the snail kite in Florida
Victoria J. Dreitz, James D. Nichols, James E. Hines, Robert E. Bennetts, Wiley M. Kitchens, Donald L. Deangelis
The rate of population growth (λ) is an important demographic parameter used to assess the viability of a population and to develop management and conservation agendas. We examined the use of...

Pradel's (1996) temporal symmetry model permitting direct estimation and modelling of population growth rate, λ i , provides a potentially useful tool for the study of population dynamics using...
Jeffrey A. Spendelow, James D. Nichols, James E. Hines, Jean-Dominique Lebreton, Roger Pradel
We modelled postfledging survival and age-specific breeding probabilities in endangered Roseate Terns ( Sterna dougallii ) at Falkner Island, Connecticut, USA using capture-recapture data from...
James D. Nichols, James E. Hines
We first consider the estimation of the finite rate of population increase or population growth rate, λ i , using capture-recapture data from open populations. We review estimation and modelling of...
