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
Many environmental resources, such as mineral resources or vegetation cover, or environmental attributes, such as chemical concentration in a stream or benthic community structure, are most appropriately sampled as continuous populations distributed over space, but most applied sampling theory and m
Random sampling from a finite population of size N =nr (r known) is considered. The statistic observed is !Z$d,=number of observations required until the kth set of size I from the n wta of r is obtained. An asymptotically unbiased estimator of n is obtained together with ita approximate variance. R
