Abstract: Assessments of the status and trends of abiotic and biotic indicators are two central objectives in many ecological studies and monitoring programs. Given the impracticality of making measurements or observations at every point in geographic space, even within a limited domain, consideration of spatial sampling is crucial to ensure the reliability of statistical inference regarding such status or temporal trends.
