Estimate the density-weighted proportion (DWP) of carcasses lying in the
searched area at each turbine at a site. The calculation requires prior
estimation of the expected proportion (psi
) and the
number of carcasses found (ncarc
). NOTE: The
carcass counts affect the uncertainty in the estimate of the fraction
of carcasses in the searched area (DWP), and ncarc
is required for
accounting for uncertainty in estimates of DWP.

of that a given carcass will land in the searched area at each turbine, with
turbine IDs as column names; or (2) a psiHatcc
object, which is a list of psiHat
objects, one for each carcass class.
