+  abstract = {We show how a recent framework combining Markov chain Monte Carlo
+	(MCMC) with particle filters (PFMCMC) may be used to estimate population
+	state-space models. With the purpose of utilizing the strengths of
+	each method, PFMCMC explores hidden states by particle filters, while
+	process and observation parameters are estimated using an MCMC algorithm.
+	PFMCMC is exemplified by analyzing time series data on a red kangaroo
+	(Macropus rufus) population in New South Wales, Australia, using
+	MCMC over model parameters based on an adaptive Metropolis-Hastings
+	algorithm. We fit three population models to these data; a density-dependent
+	logistic diffusion model with environmental variance, an unregulated
+	stochastic exponential growth model, and a random-walk model. Bayes
+	factors and posterior model probabilities show that there is little
+	support for density dependence and that the random-walk model is
+	the most parsimonious model. The particle filter Metropolis-Hastings
+	algorithm is a brute-force method that may be used to fit a range
+	of complex population models. Implementation is straightforward and
+	less involved than standard MCMC for many models, and marginal densities
+	for model selection can be obtained with little additional effort.
+	The cost is mainly computational, resulting in long running times
+	that may be improved by parallelizing the algorithm.},
