PWRC Software Archive: PRESENCE and GENPRES

PRESENCE3.0 Beta(new version!) - Estimates patch occupancy rates and related parameters. This work is in collaboration with Darryl MacKenzie, and is largely funded by the Amphibian Research and Monitoring Initiative (ARMI). Contact Darryl if you would like to learn more about this project.

GENPRES - Generates patch occupancy data and analyzes using program MARK.
