Leis SA, DeBacker MD, Morrison LW, Rowell GA, Haack JL. 2022. Standard Operating Procedure 3 Establishing and Marking Permanent Sample Sites. HTLN
This SOP gives step-by-step instructions for establishing and marking permanent sites. It provides instructions for permanently marking transect ends and the correct procedure for labeling site tags. It also explains the procedure for collecting the relevant data and filling in the “site establishment” data form in this SOP. Prior to installing any sampling infrastructure (e.g. rebar and tags), consult with the park so that they can review their compliance guidelines. Compliance may need to be reviewed to ensure that appropriate policies are followed.
