Hello

The Austrian Forest Inventory established more then 5000 permanent
sample plots with three different sizes in order to ensure an optimal
design.

Using several area sizes on a particular plot rises important
problems if regional interpretations are of interest and a plot is
affected by an so appearing edge effect (mean values, standard
deviation). These effects may lead to insignificant statistical
results.

Paper : 'The Problem of Divided Sample Plots Due to the Edge Effect'
by H. Hasenauer et al.


Best regards

Otto Eckmuellner

The paper is published in the 'Centralblatt fuer das gesamte
Forstwesen' 1993 (110) 2:63-83, in german language with english
summary and titles of figures and tables.
