“…Although the limitations must be carefully considered when using tagging data, simulation studies have increasingly demonstrated that issues with tagging data can be overcome through carefully chosen assumptions and well‐designed tagging studies (Brenden et al., 2010; Goethel et al., 2015, 2019; Saunders et al., 2019; Vincent et al., 2017, 2020). Therefore, in many instances, the benefits of including tagging data often outweigh the pitfalls for spatial IPMs (Goethel et al., 2019; Vincent et al., 2017, 2020). When only limited tag releases are possible, precision of spatial IPMs will likely decrease, but accuracy is not usually impacted (assuming that the dynamics of the tagged individuals, including movement, adequately reflect the overall population; Goethel et al., 2015b, 2019; Vincent et al., 2017).…”
