The question of spatial landscape complexity (itself being a component of landscape complexity) is a long-standing

CHAPTER 3 RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY 3.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter looks at the methodology and sampling employed for the study and at the researcher’s epistemological stands. Methodological principles in the social sciences ensure that we are able to defend our findings‚ and are those guidelines that researchers agree on‚ that they rely on to give us acceptable research practices. Methodological principles further enable researchers to attain knowledge by providing the researchers with necessary
