QUESTION 3

What are some of the advantages to sampling with many different sized quadrats (i.e., instead of just one quadrat size)

Allow us to get as many samples as we can and still save time

Allows us to determine a quadrat size that is optimal for estimating density

Allow us equal chance of sampling all areas without bias

Allows us to deduce distribution pattern across scales

a)

Explanation / Answer

Quadrat method is used to study population attributes in a given region.

Quadrats may be of different shapes/ sizes.

During sampling , different sized quadrats provide following advantages:

(b) Allows us to determine a quadrat size that is optimal for estimating density.

C) Allow us equal chance of sampling all areas without bias.

D) Allows us to deduce distribution pattern across scales.
