Optimizing Costs to Collect Local Infauna through Grabs: Effect of Sampling Size and Replication

Optimizing Costs to Collect Local Infauna through Grabs: Effect of Sampling Size and Replication

Most ecological studies require a cost-effective collection of multi-species samples. A literature review unravelled that (1) large-sized grabs to collect infauna have been used at greater depths, despite no consistent relationship between grab size and replication across studies; and (2) the total...
