Limitations to the use of species-distribution models for environmental-impact assessments in the amazon... We conclude that the use of SDM as evidence to support project-licensing decisions in the Amazon requires much greater area sampling for impact studies, or, alternatively, integrated and comparative survey strategies, to improve biodiversity sampling....
Comparison of ratio-synthetic, sample-size dependent and eblup estimators as estimators of food–animal productivity parametersA comparison was made of three small-area sampling methods [two traditional design-based methods (ratio-synthetic, sample-size dependent) and one model-based method (EBLUP)] in estimation of some cow and sow population...
The design of a zero-defect sampling with rectification procedure in the presence of classification errors: an application to database with spatial data... In such case, quadrats are the area sampling frames and theoptimum sample size to be extracted in a digital file generated from a conversion process; the size of the team of inspectors is determined so as to...
