Statistical techniques for animal population estimates

[Andrea Herbert]

Originally published in 1982 and the first full-length treatment of its subject, The Estimation of Animal Abundance and Related Parameters has been described as the �bible� in the field of statistical assessment of living animal populations. The Blackburn Press has just brought the second edition of this text back into print. Censuses are required for many purposes in wildlife management, fisheries and pest control; and they are essential in policy-making for the protection of the environment. In this book, Professor Seber, one of the leading experts in the field, explains in detail the methods that have been developed by ecologists for estimating animal numbers and related parameters such as mortality and birth rates. These designs and techniques are classified for easy reference according to the particular types of problems encountered by the field worker and the kind of information that is available.   For more information, we invite you to point your browser to:   http://www.blackburnpress.com/esofanab.html   or   http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1930665555/qid=1020112895/sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_2/103-9710712-5141410   The Blackburn Press is a relatively new publishing company, founded with the mission of keeping in print and available for purchase at reasonable prices book titles that larger publishers have lost interest in and have declared to be �out of print.� We specialize in scientific and technical books and textbooks.
