Title : Ecological Sampling Objectives : 1. To learn the method of constructing a quadrate on an area of grassland in Biodiversity Park. 2. To estimate the population sizes of Species A using the quadrate sampling method. 3. To observe how abiotic factors affect the population of Species A. Introduction : Since there is an abundance of populations in a forest‚ it is impossible for us to study all of the populations due to financial constraints‚ time consuming and

populations Because it is impossible to count all the members of a large community‚ some form of sampling has to be used. The size of the sample depends on the area to be investigated‚ but can be shown on a graph as shown (right): Beyond this point‚ more samples (= more work) does not increase the reliability of the results. Ideal sample size AQA are very keen that you should know the importance of random sampling. This is essential to avoid bias. In fieldwork‚ this is done by: 1. Lay out two tapes at

Descriptive Statistics 1.1 Descriptive vs. Inferential There are two main branches of statistics: descriptive and inferential. Descriptive statistics is used to say something about a set of information that has been collected only. Inferential statistics is used to make predictions or comparisons about a larger group (a population) using information gathered about a small part of that population. Thus‚ inferential statistics involves generalizing beyond the data‚ something that descriptive

Sampling distribution The sampling distribution is the distribution of the values of a sample statistic computed for each possible sample that could be drawn from the target population under a specified sampling plan. Because many different samples could be drawn from a population of elements‚ the sample statistics derived from any one sample will likely not equal the population parameters. As a result‚ the sampling distribution supplies an approximation of the true value’s population parameters

2. SEED SAMPLING RL. AGRA w.4.L Seed sampling is aimed at obtaining a sample of the required size and consisting of the same components as the whole lot of seeds. The quantity of seed tested in the laboratory is small‚ compared with the size of the seed lot which it is intended to represent. No matter how accurately the laboratory work is done‚ the results can only show the quality of the sample submitted for analysis. Consequently. every effort must be made to ensure that the sample sent to
