Bibliography on Methods of Analyzing Bird Banding Data
This bibliography is an effort to bring together references from various sources relating to methods that have application or at least historical interest and background in the analysis of bird banding experiments. Several papers reviewing methods or assumptions are included. Attention is focused on the estimation of population size and survival using some type of capture-recapture method. A number of papers dealing with methods of estimating band reporting rates, immigration and mean life span are also included. In the newer, more general birds (single-recapture experiments). Both types of experiment are merely sampling procedures and they have several basic similarities. The term recapture is descriptive of the general process of interest.

2009 sees the celebration of 100 years of bird ringing in Britain and Ireland, and this guide highlights some of the major achievements of the Scheme over that time.
