Samples are taken at fixed intervals along

the transect.

• Lincoln Index

• Transect

A mathematical tool used to find out if

there is a correlation between two sets of

variables, when they are not normally distributed.

A graph which is drawn to show the

relationship between one continuous and one

discontinuous variable

indicate when the calculated Spearman’s

rank is sufficient to suggest a correlation between

two sets of variables
