Distinguishing mature and immature trees allows to estimate forest carbon uptake from stand structure

Samuel M. Fischer, Xugao Wang, Andreas Huth

Relating forest productivity to local variations in forest structure has been a long-standing challenge. Previous studies often focused on the connection between forest structure a…

Boosting propagule transport models with individual-specific data from mobile apps

Samuel M. Fischer, Pouria Ramazi, Sean Simmons +2

Management of invasive species and pathogens requires information about the traffic of potential vectors. Such information is often taken from vector traffic models fitted to surve…

A robust and efficient algorithm to find profile likelihood confidence intervals

Samuel M. Fischer, Mark A. Lewis

Profile likelihood confidence intervals are a robust alternative to Wald's method if the asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator are not met. However, the constra…

Managing aquatic invasions: optimal locations and operating times for watercraft inspection stations

Samuel M. Fischer, Martina Beck, Leif-Matthias Herborg +1

Aquatic invasive species (AIS) cause significant ecological and economic damages around the world. A major spread mechanism for AIS is traffic of boaters transporting their watercr…

A hybrid gravity and route choice model to assess vector traffic in large-scale road networks

Samuel M. Fischer, Martina Beck, Leif-Matthias Herborg +1

Human traffic along roads can be a major vector for infectious diseases and invasive species. Though most road traffic is local, a small number of long-distance trips can suffice t…

Locally optimal routes for route choice sets

Samuel M. Fischer

Route choice is often modelled as a two-step procedure in which travellers choose their routes from small sets of promising candidates. Many methods developed to identify such choi…
