Dealing with varying detection probability, unequal sample sizes and clumped distributions in count data.

Temporal variation in the detectability of a species can bias estimates of relative abundance if not handled correctly. For example, when effort varies in space and/or time it becomes necessary to take variation in detectability into account when data are analyzed. We demonstrate the importance of i...
