Trent specializes in application of capture-recapture analyses, habitat selection analyses, linear models, computer intensive statistical models, and finite population surveys. In applications, he has experience detecting bowhead whale displacement around anthropogenic sound sources, modeling population growth and demographic parameters of Northern spotted owls and polar bears, analyzing aerial surveys for Eastern grey whales, modeling habitat needs of moose, grizzly bears, polar bears, and bighorn sheep.
He has published a number of articles on capture-recapture and habitat selection methods, including co-editing a book on capture-recapture methods and co-authored a book on habitat-selection. Computer intensive statistical methods, such as bootstrap and permutation methods, as well as their application to dependent data, are a key component of all of Trent's work.
Workshop instruction experience includes week-long workshops on capture-recapture methods, 1-week and 1-day workshops on habitat selection, and several 1-week workshops on computer intensive statistics. He also works with many endangered species experience including projects involving Northern spotted owls, bowhead whales, eastern grey whales, polar bears, grizzly bears, tailed frogs, hell-benders, and many others.
