<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear all,<br></div>I am trying to make the best use of the recapTrans argument but I am facing some difficulties. I tried to allow for a different capture probability in each year but the outcome does not seem to display those parameters, they also don't appear in the DIC table, and I cannot find them hidden within the basta output object (I may have missed it though). I may have miss-specified the argument but I try both to put a numeric vector with all years or one with all years but the first one. How can I have access to these parameters? And is it possible to exert some constraint on them, e.g. constrain recapture probability to be identical between some years, or related to a covariate such as a proxy for the capture effort? Is there any technical documentation on the method behind recapTrans? I confess I did not dig into the basta source code to find my answers...<br>
Thanks a lot, and see you in Odense!<br clear="all"><div><div>Alex<br></div><div><br>-- <br>Alexandre Courtiol<br><br><a href="http://sites.google.com/site/alexandrecourtiol/home" target="_blank">http://sites.google.com/site/alexandrecourtiol/home</a><br>
