TL;DR: O'Brien et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a hierarchical spatial capture-recapture model for estimating the density of camera traps from long-term camera trap data in the Indonesian rainforest.

TL;DR: Occupancy estimation and modelling based on detection‐nondetection data provide an effective way of exploring change in a species’ distribution across time and space in cases where the species is not always detected with certainty.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the performance of five modelling techniques (generalised linear models, generalised additive models, Random Forest, boosted regression trees, and maximum entropy) to predict the distribution of Balearic Shearwaters (Puffinus mauretanicus) along the coast of the western Iberian Peninsula.

TL;DR: Minimum principles for standardizing information that should be reported in all peer-reviewed papers are presented, believing that standardised reporting enables more robust comparisons among studies, facilitates national and global reviews, enables greater ease of study replication, and leads to improved wildlife research and management outcomes.
