Title: Efficiency of Multiple Response Adaptive Estimators
Author(s): Paul Mosquin*+
Companies: RTI International
Address: 3040 Cornwallis Rd, RTP, NC, 27709, United States
Keywords: adaptive sampling ; cluster sampling ; quadrat sampling ; spatial sampling
Abstract:

This talk will describe adaptive sampling designs where the adaptive condition can be satisfied through the joint action of more than one sample unit. Estimators and their variances are given and simulation results are presented to identify situations where the designs are more efficient than their adaptive cluster counterparts. It is found that the estimators can be more efficient, providing protection against poor choice of unit size, frame orientation, and frame placement. The designs can be used with populations that allow a finer frame partitioning than is proposed for sample units of an adaptive cluster design.
