We are interested in developing new methods for modeling population dynamics, estimating model parameters, analyzing population declines, and validating extinction risk estimates. Research in this areas has involved
A new approach to develop fully specified population models (complete with stage structure, stochasticity, and density dependence) from mark-recapture data (the method, including the source code, the data we analyzed, and sample results for one species, can be freely downloaded via github.com/Akcakaya/MAPS-to-Models);
