Analysis of the Southern Hemisphere minke whale mark-recovery data
Analyses of Balaenoptera acutorostrata stocks are carried out under a number of mark-recapture models, and estimates of abundance and of survival rates are obtained. The major potential sources of bias in the estimates lead to overestimation of abundance and underestimation of survival rate, and app...
