The number of bird or bat fatalities from collisions with buildings, towers or wind energy turbines can be estimated based on carcass searches and experimentally assessed carcass persistence times and searcher efficiency. This package provides diverse functions for estimating the probability that a bird or bat that died is found by a searcher. It further provides a function to obtain a posterior distribution of the number of fatalities based on the number of carcasses found and the estimated detection probability.

Estimation of the Number of Fatalities from Carcass Searches
The number of bird or bat fatalities from collisions with buildings, towers or wind energy turbines can be estimated based on carcass searches and experimentally assessed carcass persistence times and searcher efficiency. Functions for estimating the probability that a bird or bat that died is found by a searcher are provided. Further functions calculate the posterior distribution of the number of fatalities based on the number of carcasses found and the estimated detection probability.

Tools that can aid in the assessment of the autonomic regulation
of cardiovascular physiology. The aims of this package are to: 1) study
electrocardiography (both intervals and morphology) as extensions
of signal processing, 2) study circadian rhythms and how it effects
autonomic physiology, 3) assess clinical risk of autonomic dysfunction on
cardiovascular health through the perspective of epidemiology and causality.
The analysis of circadian rhythms through cosinor analysis are built upon
the methods by Cornelissen (2014) <doi:10.1186/1742-4682-11-16> and
Refinetti, Cornelissen, Halberg (2014) <doi:10.1080/09291010600903692>.
