POPAN references

[SBeatham]

Hi,

I just wondered if anyone knew of any good papers on POPAN and abundance estimation both on criticisms of the method but paticularly where it has been used on field data to produce reliable estimates.

Thanks a lot

Likely you were aware of these resources but just in case -

See section 13.3.2 (Chapter 13) in the MARK book and elsewhere in the MARK Gentle Introduction by searching for the keyword 'POPAN' (download the 'entire' mark book at http://www.phidot.org/software/mark/docs/book/ to simplify this search).
