Species frequency distribution as a function of the surface area

Paper deals with the results of statistical analysis of the type of frequency distribution of species occuring in the field layers of two forest phytocoenoses. In the both cases frequency distributions were ranged out for the surface area of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64 m2. The types of frequency distr...

Description
Summary:Paper deals with the results of statistical analysis of the type of frequency distribution of species occuring in the field layers of two forest phytocoenoses. In the both cases frequency distributions were ranged out for the surface area of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64 m2. The types of frequency distributions were determined on the grounds of the values of Fisher's and Pearson's K coefficients. Analysed distributions were classified into Pearson's system. Also the size of the sample plot at which the empirical frequency distributions were symetrical, from the statistical point of view, nad where they were U-shaped was determined.
