Sampling Strategies for Natural Resources and the Environment, penned by esteemed experts in the field, delves into the diverse sampling techniques employed in ecology, forestry, environmental science, and natural resources. This comprehensive volume offers a comprehensive exploration of methods to estimate aggregate characteristics on both per unit area and elemental bases. In addition to conventional sampling designs like simple random sampling and list sampling, the authors delve into more specialized approaches for sampling vegetation, encompassing randomized branch sampling and 3P sampling.
One of the book's notable features is its emphasis on areal sampling designs, encompassing a range of approaches such as plot/quadrat sampling, Bitterlich sampling, line intersect sampling, and several lesser-known designs. Furthermore, the book provides comprehensive solutions to the problem of edge effect, a crucial consideration in ecological and environmental research. Another distinguishing aspect is the inclusion of sampling designs for continuums, with a focus on the methods of Monte Carlo integration.
By presenting a conceptual understanding of each sampling design and estimation procedure, along with mathematical derivations and proofs in the chapter appendices, this text fosters a profound comprehension of the foundations of sampling theory, estimation, and inference. Moreover, it equips readers with the skills necessary to reliably sample natural populations and continuums, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of research findings.
