title: 'retmort: Estimate User-Based Tagging Mortality and Tag Loss in Mark-Recapture
  Studies'
version: 1.0.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.retmort
abstract: We provide several avenues to predict and account for user-based mortality
  and tag loss during mark-recapture studies. When planning a study on a target species,
  the retentionmort_generation() function can be used to produce multiple synthetic
  mark-recapture datasets to anticipate the error associated with a planned field
  study to guide method development to reduce error. Similarly, if field data was
  already collected, the retentionmort() function can be used to predict the error
  from already generated data to adjust for user-based mortality and tag loss. The
  test_dataset_retentionmort() function will provide an example dataset of how data
  should be inputted into the function to run properly. Lastly, the retentionmort_figure()
  function can be used on any dataset generated from either model function to produce
  an 'rmarkdown' printout of preliminary analysis associated with the model, including
  summary statistics and figures. Methods and results pertaining to the formation
  of this package can be found in McCutcheon et al. (in review, "Predicting tagging-related
  mortality and tag loss during mark-recapture studies").
