Ecological sampling methods. If we want to know what kind of plants and animals are in a particular habitat, and how many there are of each species, it is usually impossible to go and count each and every one present. ... This problem is usually solved by taking a number of samples from around the habitat, making the necessary assumption that these samples are representative of the habitat in general. ... Samples are usually taken using a standard sampling unit of some kind. This ensures that all of the samples represent the same area or volume (water) of the habitat each time. The usual sampling unit is a quadrat. Quadrats normally consist of a square frame, the most frequently used size being 1m². The purpose of using a quadrat is to enable comparable samples to be obtained from areas of consistent size and shape. Rectangular quadrats and even circular quadrats have been used in some surveys. 2, record 3, English, - ecological%20sampling

Le projet [d'analyse agronomique et écologique des unités spatio-temporelles pertinentes pour la gestion de la biodiversité] a pour objectif d'articuler étroitement des approches écologiques et agronomiques pour comprendre comment les diverses activités agricoles (aménagement du parcellaire, pratiques de production, d'entretien des bordures de champs, etc.) interviennent dans la dynamique de la biodiversité. L'effet de la structure du paysage et des pratiques des agriculteurs sur les éléments clés du paysage que sont les bordures de champ sont pris simultanément en compte. L'échantillonnage écologique sera construit à partir d'une caractérisation du paysage et de ses éléments d'un point de vue agronomique. 1, record 3, French, - %C3%A9chantillonnage%20%C3%A9cologique

Ne pas confondre avec «association végétale» pris dans son sens large. En fait, d'après la définition donnée dans le Grand dictionnaire encyclopédique Larousse (LAROG, 1982, v. 1, page 757), «association végétale» peut, dans un sens large, être synonyme de «communauté végétale» : L'expression «association végétale» désigne, au sens large, un ensemble de plantes aux exigences écologiques voisines, présentant une composition floristique stable, organisé de façon précise dans l'espace [...] et dans le temps. [...] Plus particulièrement, l'association végétale correspond à un groupement type, désigné d'après le nom de l'espèce dominante [...] 4, record 4, French, - association%20v%C3%A9g%C3%A9tale
