Donovan, T. M., and M. Alldredge.  2007.  Exercises in Estimating and Monitoring Abundance. <http://www.uvm.edu/envnr/vtcfwru/spreadsheets/abundance/abundance.htm>

Chapter 14 - Royle-N-Mixture Count Model.   Here is a model that should be useful to a great many people. The model analyzes data in which the abundance of a target species is recorded over multiple surveys when the species is imperfectly detected.  This model is described in Chapter 5 of the book, Occupancy Estimation and Modeling.  The original paper describing the model is Royle, J.A. 2004. N-Mixture Models for Estimating Population Size from Spatially Replicated Counts. Biometrics 60, 108-115.   This exercise was co-written with Heather McKenney from the University of Vermont.
