A new method jointly analyzes animal abundance and demographic data using population-dynamics models, offering an alternative to single abundance indices. Simulation studies confirm its robust performance in ecological research.

Area of Science:

  • Ecology
  • Population Biology
  • Statistical Modeling

Background:

  • Joint analysis of animal abundance and demographic data is crucial for ecological research.
  • Existing methods often rely on single abundance indices, which can introduce biases.
  • Recent advancements have focused on developing more integrated analytical approaches.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel methodology for the simultaneous analysis of panel survey and demographic data.
  • To fit population-dynamics models directly to survey data, avoiding disadvantages of using derived abundance indices.
  • To compare the performance of the new approach with existing methods using real-world data.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a new approach fitting population-dynamics models to survey data.

  • Application of the methodology to British Lapwing (Vanellus vanellus) data.
  • Comparison of results with existing analytical approaches and a simulation study.

    • Main Results:

    • Estimates for demographic parameters and population indices were comparable across all methods.
    • The new method demonstrated good performance in terms of mean squared error in simulation studies.
    • The approach successfully integrated panel survey and demographic data for ecological inference.

    Conclusions:

    • The new methodology provides a robust alternative for joint inference from animal abundance and demographic data.
    • Directly fitting population-dynamics models to survey data mitigates analytical disadvantages.
    • The approach shows promise for improving ecological population assessments.
