Assumptions in the mark-release-recapture technique include no deaths due to predation, no emigration/immigration, equal birth and death rates, the mark not affecting survival probability, and marked:unmarked ratios being equal in the population.
Le ipotesi nella tecnica mark-release-recapture includono nessuna morte dovuta a predazione, nessuna migrazione, tassi di natalità e mortalità uguali, la marcatura non influisce sulla sopravvivenza e le proporzioni marcato:non marcato sono uguali nella popolazione.
| Front | What assumptions are made in mark-release-recapture? |
|---|---|
| Back | - no deaths due to predation - no emigration/immigration between first and second sample - death rate and birth rate remains equal between samples - mark does not affect probability of survival - marked individuals distribute evenly amongst population |
