Two line-transect estimators for population density of flushing animals, based on elliptic flushing curves, have recently been proposed, one by Burnham (1979, Biometrics 35, 587-595) and one by de ...

This technique has long been at the forefront of quantitative ecology, epidemiology and the social sciences for estimating the size of populations that are difficult to count directly. By using ...

Recent advances in survey sampling have underscored the value of auxiliary variables in estimating finite population means. By incorporating additional information from related variables, researchers ...
