      Bachmann, Mona Estrella; Kulik, Lars; Gatiso, Tsegaye T.; Nielsen, Martin Reinhardt; Haase, Dagmar; Heurich, Marco Dietmar; Buchadas, Ana; Bösch, Lukas; Eirdosh, Dustin; Freytag, Andreas; Geldmann, Jonas; Ghoddousi, Arash; Hicks, Thurston Cleveland; Ordaz-Németh, Isabel; Qin, Siyu; Sop, Tenekwetche; Calkoen, Suzanne van Beeck; Wesche, Karsten; Kühl, Hjalmar S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Hunting and its impacts on wildlife are typically studied regionally, with a particular focus on the Global South. Hunting can, however, also undermine rewilding efforts or threaten wildlife in the Global North. Little is ...
    • Deer Behavior Affects Density Estimates With Camera Traps, but Is Outwighted by Spatial Variability 

      Henrich, Maik; Hartig, Florian; Dormann, Carsten F.; Kühl, Hjalmar S.; Peters, Wibke; Franke, Frederik; Peterka, Tomáš; Šustr, Pavel; Heurich, Marco Dietmar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Density is a key trait of populations and an essential parameter in ecological research, wildlife conservation and management. Several models have been developed to estimate population density based on camera trapping data, ...
    • Estimating effective survey duration in camera trap distance sampling surveys 

      Kühl, Hjalmar S.; Buckland, Stephen T.; Henrich, Maik; Howe, Eric; Heurich, Marco Dietmar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Among other approaches, camera trap distance sampling (CTDS) is used to estimate animal abundance from unmarked populations. It was formulated for videos and observation distances are measured at predetermined ‘snapshot ...
    • A semi-automated camera trap distance sampling approach for population density estimation 

      Henrich, Maik; Burgueño, Mercedes; Hoyer, Jacqueline; Haucke, Timm; Steinhage, Volker; Kühl, Hjalmar S.; Heurich, Marco Dietmar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Camera traps have become important tools for the monitoring of animal populations. However, the study-specific estimation of animal detection probabilities is key if unbiased abundance estimates of unmarked species are to ...
