Scott,

I've been working on this problem since the beginning of the year. But, it's a tough nut to crack and I'm still a long way from cracking it. The attached charts show some of my preliminary scarcity models, starting with linear and progressing to bounded logarithmic transforms. But I can't arbitrarily pick a model. I need a better understanding of the populations. That is what I alluded to above about exploring the "mark and re-capture" methodology.

So even though from one perspective it may appear to be going nowhere, it is being actively pursued.

Best Regards

Note - The following scarcity distribution models are examples. None have been proven accurate and they should not be interpreted as fact.
