Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone who works with forests must measure them, foresters, forestry students, scientists or forest owners. This book summarises modern forest measurement techniques for all those people. It describes how to measure forests, why they are measured and the basis of the science behind the measurements. Trees and forests are large and complex, but even something as difficult as the amount of wood they contain can be measured with quite unsophisticated equipment. This is a book written for all, from professional foresters to the lay person, in fact anyone who needs to measure forests anywhere in the world.

Download or read book Sampling With Probability Proportional to Size From a Sorted List (Classic Reprint) written by Albert R. Stage and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sampling With Probability Proportional to Size From a Sorted List Sampling with unequal probabilities of selecting a sample unit frequently can result in increased efficiency in estimating population totals. The technique requires that each unit in the population be characterized by a size variable that is correlated with the variable of real interest to be measured for that unit. If a list of the size variable can be obtained cheaply for all units in the population, then sampling with probability proportional to size (pps) according to the method developed by Hartley (1966) can be more efficient than pps sampling by other methods. How much more efficient depends on the character of the functional relation between size and the variable of real interest. The distinguishing feature of Hartley's method is that the units of the population are sampled at uniform intervals of accumulated size from a random start in the list of units sorted into order by size. Hence, the sample that is drawn is more likely to contain both small and large units than would a pps sample drawn from a randomly ordered list. Hartley has provided an expression for the true variance of estimates based on this method of selecting the sample. However, the sample estimate of this variance that he suggests is based on the assumption that the ratio of the variable of interest to the size variable is a linear function of the size variable. In a subsequent part of this paper, the assumption concerning the linearity of this relation is relaxed to include polynomial functions of the size variable.

Download or read book Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Sample Surveys written by Raymond L. Chambers and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-05-02 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sample surveys provide data used by researchers in a large range of disciplines to analyze important relationships using well-established and widely used likelihood methods. The methods used to select samples often result in the sample differing in important ways from the target population and standard application of likelihood methods can lead to biased and inefficient estimates. Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Sample Surveys presents an overview of likelihood methods for the analysis of sample survey data that account for the selection methods used, and includes all necessary background material on likelihood inference. It covers a range of data types, including multilevel data, and is illustrated by many worked examples using tractable and widely used models. It also discusses more advanced topics, such as combining data, non-response, and informative sampling. The book presents and develops a likelihood approach for fitting models to sample survey data. It explores and explains how the approach works in tractable though widely used models for which we can make considerable analytic progress. For less tractable models numerical methods are ultimately needed to compute the score and information functions and to compute the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. For these models, the book shows what has to be done conceptually to develop analyses to the point that numerical methods can be applied. Designed for statisticians who are interested in the general theory of statistics, Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Sample Surveys is also aimed at statisticians focused on fitting models to sample survey data, as well as researchers who study relationships among variables and whose sources of data include surveys.

Book excerpt: "The level is appropriate for an upper-level undergraduate or graduate-level statistics major. Sampling: Design and Analysis (SDA) will also benefit a non-statistics major with a desire to understand the concepts of sampling from a finite population. A student with patience to delve into the rigor of survey statistics will gain even more from the content that SDA offers. The updates to SDA have potential to enrich traditional survey sampling classes at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The new discussions of low response rates, non-probability surveys, and internet as a data collection mode hold particular value, as these statistical issues have become increasingly important in survey practice in recent years... I would eagerly adopt the new edition of SDA as the required textbook." (Emily Berg, Iowa State University) What is the unemployment rate? What is the total area of land planted with soybeans? How many persons have antibodies to the virus causing COVID-19? Sampling: Design and Analysis, Third Edition shows you how to design and analyze surveys to answer these and other questions. This authoritative text, used as a standard reference by numerous survey organizations, teaches the principles of sampling with examples from social sciences, public opinion research, public health, business, agriculture, and ecology. Readers should be familiar with concepts from an introductory statistics class including probability and linear regression; optional sections contain statistical theory for readers familiar with mathematical statistics. The third edition, thoroughly revised to incorporate recent research and applications, includes a new chapter on nonprobability samples—when to use them and how to evaluate their quality. More than 200 new examples and exercises have been added to the already extensive sets in the second edition. SDA’s companion website contains data sets, computer code, and links to two free downloadable supplementary books (also available in paperback) that provide step-by-step guides—with code, annotated output, and helpful tips—for working through the SDA examples. Instructors can use either R or SAS® software. SAS® Software Companion for Sampling: Design and Analysis, Third Edition by Sharon L.
