What are quadrats? |
Quadrats are square frames that have sides usually 0.5m long. They are used to count a smaller, representative part of a population. You should throw them randomly on the ground, then count and record the number of each species within the quadrat. You can estimate the population of each species in a given area. Quadrat sizes can vary depending on the sample you're surveying. |
