Description

Standardized method using a PVC quadrat divided into 25 squares with metal pin drops to quantify species cover. Number of species contacts per pin drop recorded to estimate relative abundance.

Typical Equipment

  • PVC quadrat
  • metal pin

Output Measurements

  • species cover
  • species composition
