Thinking beyond the closure assumption: Designing surveys for estimating biological truth with occupancy models Thinking beyond the closure assumption: Designing surveys for estimating biological truth with occupancy models
Occupancy models estimate distributions of imperfectly detected species, but violations of the closure assumption can bias results. However, researchers working with mobile animals may find it impossible to eliminate such violations. Here, we tested the hypothesis that occupancy models fit to realistic sampling data can generate unbiased occupancy estimates for an itinerant Wood Thrush...
