Abstract
A problem of interest for ecology and conservation is that of determining the best al-
by a species. Many species are difficult to detect and often remain undetected during
to be unbiased, detectability needs to be taken into account. In such studies there is a
site. This design problem has not been addressed to date with an explicit consideration
Bayesian design techniques and show how a simple two-stage design can significantly
survey effort between the two study stages, given a prior distribution for the parame-
how the results change when the sample size is small, considering second-order approx-
efficiency gain, we recommend following the sequential design approach for species
occupancy estimation. This article has supplementary material online.
