Explicit estimates from capture-recapture data with both death and immigration-stochastic model

A brief review, with references, of the literature on capture-recapture theory is given in Jolly (1963). More recently, Cormack (1964) gives a solution, including asymptotic variances, for a specific situation involving the marking and release of a non-random sample of fulmar petrels. His model is stochastic and will be referred to in ? 4. Seber (1962, 1965) has also produced some interesting solutions, and these together with Darroch (1958,...
