Thrilled to be able to share our new paper on the bias introduced by the Laplace approximation to the marginal likelihood for hierarchical models
Decades of captive green sea turtle data reveals no evidence of reproductive senescence despite mortality rates increasing with age. These results contextualize age-specific changes in the life histor...
Additional presentations by ACCSTR PhD students Chris Nolte on leatherback demographic ecology and stable isotope patterns plus George Glen on sea turtle aging and life history theory.
Dr. Karen Bjorndal was recently featured in a piece from the UF College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Communications Support.
Let's congratulate Dr. Bjorndal on her retirement, after a more than 50-year career at the University of Florida!

Due to the high dimensional integration over latent variables, computing marginal likelihood and posterior distributions for the parameters of a general hierarchical model is a difficult task. The Mar...
