We are offering a short course on spatially explicit capture-recapture (SECR) methods in France this June, before the International Statistical Ecology Conference. This will cover both basic SECR and recent advances relevant to ecologists using detectors (traps, cameras, DNA hair snares, microphones) or area search to estimate and model animal population density.
