Post by: Yoshi on Sep 29, 2014
A conservation biologist sampled an area for fern species richness, and she compares her data to that previously collected by other researchers. Her data differ from the other researchers' data by (1) the size of the area sampled and (2) the number of samples collected. What method should she choose to perform a valid statistical comparison?
A) Resample at the site and construct an accumulation curve.
B) Resample the total pool of samples from the data and construct an accumulation curve.
C) Resample at the site and construct a rarefaction curve.
D) Resample the total pool of samples from the data and construct a rarefaction curve.
