Demographic Parameter Estimates for San Francisco Gartersnakes (Thamnophis sirtalis tetrataenia) for Fitting an Integral Projection Model
A study comparing reintroduction scenarios for the San Francisco gartersnake (Thamnophis sirtalis tetrataenia), an endangered subspecies native to San Mateo County and Santa Cruz County in northern California. Models for snake survival, growth, fecundity, and reproductive status were used to construct a demographic population model. Data are posterior distributions for demographic parameters from Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling in hierarchical Bayesian models.
