The eciencies of two sampling designs for estimating the mean of a ยฎxed, ยฎnite population are considered. The ยฎrst is adaptive cluster sampling (ASRS; Thompson, 1990 Journal of the American Statistical Association) which is designed to adaptively increase sampling eort in the neighbourhood of units

A software program is presented which automates the quadrat analysis procedure for detecting spatial or temporal clustering outlined by Boots and Getis.' The software essentially compares observed values within areal or temporat sampling units to those values that would have been obtained were the v
The design of human operator controls rests on a literature and experience covering the past 40 years. Some deficiencies and inconsistencies in our current controls standards are noted with respect to control design procedures and the particular case of alphanumeric data entry. Future activities are
## Abstract In complex traits, multiple disease loci presumably interact to produce the disease. For this reason, even with highโresolution single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker maps, it has been difficult to map susceptibility loci by conventional locusโbyโlocus methods. Fine mapping strateg
