Extract

The interpretation of mark-recapture data depends on a probabilistic model for the biological system. The assumptions of the general model must be verified against what is known about the particular system. This talk considers the application of markrecapture methods to the estimation of salmon smolt migrations from Babine Lake, British Columbia.
