Post 4- Sampling Strategies

The three sampling strategies used in the virtual forest tutorial are random, systematic, and haphazard. In total, 7 species were sampled. All three sampling strategies measured total basal area, density,…

Blog Post: Unveiling the Virtual Forest – Sampling Strategies and Results

  Embarking on a virtual forest exploration, I implemented three distinct sampling strategies—systematic, random, and strategic—in a tutorial setting to unravel their respective impacts on data collection efficiency and accuracy….

the outcomes of the three sample procedures I used in my virtual forest tutorial are in this blog post. The purpose was to evaluate the effectiveness and accuracy of different…

Sampling Strategies

The fastest estimated sampling time was systematic sampling at 12 hours and 36 minutes Systematic and random sampling percent errors were low for common species and very high for rare…

Sampling strategies, blog post 4

Most common species: Eastern Hemlock percentage error: systematic: 7% Random: 14.9% haphazard: 0% Sweet birch percentage error: systematic: 39.7% Random: 32% Haphazard: 26.8% rarest species:  White pine: Systematic: 110.7% Random:…

Virtual Forest Sampling Strategies – Kelsey Kozak

For the Virtual forest sampling tutorial I chose 3 different sampling strategies: Systematic (along a topographical gradient), Random Sampling, and Haphazard (subjectively without bias). The technique that had the fastest…

Sampling Strategies

Techniques for sampling employed in the virtual tutorial included random or systematic sampling. Systematic sampling along a topographic gradient had the quickest shown sampling time, that lasts 13 hours and…

Sampling Strategies

-The most efficient sampling technique was Random sampling at just over 12 hours, while the other sampling methods were both just over 13 hours. -Each sampling method seems to have…

From the virtual forest tutorial, I utilized three different sampling techniques—systematic, random, and haphazard—to assess their effectiveness and precision. Systematic sampling, due to its predetermined methodology, required more time for…

SAMPLING STRATEGIES

Systematic sampling along a gradient was the most time efficient method, taking approx. 12 hrs. 08 mins.   12 hrs. 50 mins – random sampling  12 hrs. 57 mins –…
