Optimize transect length in ecological surveys.
Project description
----
A set of tools to optimize transect length in an ecological monitoring program.
The primary goal is to reduce transect length without losing the power to
detect a difference between surveys (e.g. seasonal surveys).
These tools assume that the data are collected from transects (which can be
variable in length), and each transect contains sequential data collection points.
E.g. A 50 meter transect with 1m2 plots spaced 4 meters apart.
It also assumes that you are assessing grouped data (e.g. functional groups,
lifeforms, guilds or a custom list of groupings used to cluster species) at an
individual location. For example, lifeforms (forbs, trees) in a remnant forest.
