Atkinson AJ, Fisher RN, Rochester CJ, Brown CW. 2003. Sampling design optimization and establishment of baselines for herpetofauna arrays at the Point Loma Ecological Reserve. U.S. Geological Survey, Western Ecological Research Center. Sacramento, California
The purpose of this analysis is to examine the baseline data set and determine how many arrays, sampling periods, and days per sampling period are needed to assess whether herpetofauna diversity is being maintained on the reserve and suggest points for when management actions should be considered.
