Los Alamo s National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM LA-8787-NERP. The source code and executable files are available from a number of sources inc luding NTIS. The SESEME BBS run by Wayne Cornelius (office: 919-737-2531) at N C State has source and PC executable files. The PC version I have is dated 198 4 and is relatively easy to use. At the present time, there is some interest in developing a more general approa ch to mark-recapture using log-linear models. This method would allow a broade r range of possible models than is available from CAPTURE.
