Abstract

On the Ground
• Adaptive land management requires monitoring of resource conditions, which requires choices about where and when to monitor a landscape.

• Designing a sampling design for a monitoring program can be broken down in to eight steps: identifying questions, defining objectives, selecting reporting units, deciding data collection methods, defining the sample frame, selecting an appropriate design type, deciding stratification and allocation, and identifying the required sampling effort.

• Here, we provide descriptions of each step in the process and identify tools and resources to complete each step.
