Closed Multi-Strata Model for Live Recaptures

The multi-strata model is easily extended to include closed primary sessions, i.e., an animal cannot change strata during a primary session, but secondary occasions within a primary session provide additional information about an animal's encounter probability. There are 6 possible closed models for each primary occasion. All primary sessions must have the same closed model data type, but you can change the closed captures portion of the model with the Change Data Type menu selection.
