“…Here I use a simulation approach to investigate the ability of both OLRE models and Beta-Binomial models to recover unbiased parameter estimates in mixed effects models of Binomial data under various degrees of overdispersion. In addition, as ecologists often fit random intercept terms to models when the random effect sample size is low (<5 levels), I investigate the performance of both model types under a range of random effect sample sizes when overdispersion is present. …”

“…BACKGROUND: As global climate change accelerates, ecologists and conservationists are increasingly investigating changes in biodiversity and predicting species distribution based on species observed at sites, but rarely consider those plant species that could potentially inhabit but are absent from these areas (i.e., the dark diversity and its distribution). …”

“…Therefore, any reliable way to demonstrate the presence of a particular animal, within a given area, would be a valuable addition to many ecologists’ tool kits. The proposed method is based upon the idea that you can find a parasite, specific to a vertebrate animal of interest that has a life stage within an invertebrate host. …”
