<br/><br/> Abstract: The type of ring (i.e. its colour combination: the<br/>colour of the alphanumeric characters and the base colour of<br/>the ring) used in population dynamics studies could have an<br/>effect on parameters such as resighting probability (p); for<br/>instance, we might expect a lower p value when using rings<br/>with white characters than when using rings with dark characters. We performed an experiment using two types of colour rings (white or black characters on a dark base) in Yellowlegged Gulls in order to test our hypothesis. To do this, we<br/>used Cormack–Jolly–Seber (CJS) models incorporating variation in p among the birds. We obtained no evidence supporting an effect of type of ring on either survival or p.
