Abstract:

Designing large scale monitoring studies involves many more issues than the usual issues of statistical efficiency and power. We examine the efficiency and power of a proposed Northern Spotted Owl monitoring design along with some of the non-statistical issues such as budgets, access to remote sites, and (most important) what land managers can and cannot do with the results.
