Sampling strategies in Virtual forest
All three techniques had small differences in the time spent to do sampling, but haphazard sampling was the most efficient one with 12 hours and 27 minutes. Random sampling took…
Blog 4: Sampling Strategies
I used three sampling techniques in this tutorial: haphazard, area random and distance random. Time needed for sampling was as follows: haphazard: 11 hours 50 min area random: 13 hours…
Virtual Forest Tutorial
The technique with the fastest sampling time was Random at 4 hours, 43 minutes, followed by 12 hours, 6 minutes for systematic along a topographical gradient, and finally 13 hours,…
Community Sampling Exercise
This was an interesting tool to compare the difference between transect, random, and haphazard sampling. The results of the densities and percent errors show that there is error that occurs…
Virtual Forest Tutorial
During the virtual forest sampling tutorial, I used the distance-based sampling method for all three trials. Of the three sampling methods the systemic method had the fastest estimated time to…
Blog #4 Virtual Forest Sampling
For the virtual forest sampling tutorial I used the area method. Systematic sampling was the fast approach (12 hours, 36 mins) followed by Haphazard sampling (13 hours, 5 mins) then…
Sampling Strategies
After running the three types of tests the results said that subjective sampling would take the longest amount of time at 12 hours and 44 minutes, although this is only…
Comparison of forest sampling strategies from virtual tutorial.
For the forest sampling tutorial, I used the distance-based method for all three sampling strategies (random, systematic, haphazard). The systematic sampling method was the fastest (4h 7 m) to survey,…
