Need an estimate of the proportion in each group before and after removal
Population must be closed during the removal season
Example: 2 groups x and y
Probability of each individual being caught is constant throughout the experiment
All individulas have the same probability of being caught in sample i.
Idea:
Catch/Effort = Catchability * Population Size
** If population is closed then Population Size at time t = Initial Population Size - Cumulative # removed
We can estimate N0 and 1/K by regressing yi and xi
Example: Blue Crabs (From Fischler 1965)
